Public sector users access multiple CCS commercial agreements (CCS-CA) to buy common goods and services. Currently, this is a manual, paper based process which is complex and hard to use. These need to be turned into digital services that allow users to access these CAs online and via a self-service guided user journey. There are five CAs identified for digitisation and this work will form the foundation of a platform to support more CCS-CAs in the near future. This work will provide the technical and architectural foundations for future digital buying of CCS-CAs, together with several self-service user journeys based on GDS service design standards. These will be the building blocks and components for the future digitisation of CCS-CAs.
