Canon has announced its successful inclusion in the latest National Education Printer Agreement (NEPA) framework, managed by the Northeastern Universities Purchasing Consortium. This achievement highlights its dedication to providing top tier print and managed print services to the higher education sector across the UK.

Canon's place on the NEPA framework provides a key route to market for the higher education sector, allowing universities to access its comprehensive range of products and services. The NEPA framework also permits suppliers to nominate up to three resellers to deliver services as prime contractors.

Stephen Moody, sector director, education at Canon UK and Ireland, said: ‘In today’s rapidly changing world, we are pleased to confirm we have been awarded a position on the National Education Printer Agreement 3 Framework allowing us to partner with our higher and further education customers. We have secured a position across all four lots allowing customers to select from our full range of products, offering the sector one of the largest choices on the market today with our comprehensive range of technologies.’

Paul Eagleton, IT and telecoms category manager at Northeastern Universities Purchasing Consortium, said: ‘Having been successful on previous iterations of the framework, we are delighted to welcome Canon to the latest NEPA framework. The framework has a focus on the higher education sector and is open to all members of the six participating UK procurement consortia, whose members include a range of different organisations mainly across education and other sectors.’
