Joint schedules

Joint Schedules are documents which form part of a procurement contract. They focus on the relationship between Crown Commercial Service or the buyer and the supplier and provide additional assurance that the supplier will meet their contractual obligations.

They include a range of topics including definitions, variation procedures, insurance requirements and more.

Other documents forming the procurement contract include:

• framework schedules
• call-off schedules
