Delivering “best value” for schools is our promise to you!

With the introduction of the Preferred Supplier Arrangement with Queensland Education in February 2006, SDS was not only able to offer cost savings, but also “best value” for Queensland schools. In its first year of operation, the EDPSA-115 Preferred Supplier Arrangement has saved Queensland Education $1.96m. That’s a lot of extra desks, pens, paper and curriculum resources for your schools.

What is the EDPSA-115?

In simple terms the arrangement offers best value and savings across education supplies. SDS offers discounts of approximately 18% across a ‘Top 500’ everyday product range in addition to curriculum resources and furniture. With the introduction of Prep to the school system, the agreement has supplied more than $7m worth of Prep products. All products within the SDS catalogue have been specifically selected by a team of procurement professionals with extensive experience in supplying Queensland Education. SDS has no commercial agenda. Our charter is to ensure we provide a range of quality products at competitive prices.

SDS takes its commitment to Queensland Education very seriously.

DET is working closely with us to ensure we are able to serve you with the full scope of benefits that only this arrangement allows. The arrangement has been specifically designed to give teachers back to teaching and give education support staff back to supporting education. Our first priority is to always offer a sustainable, reliable service that meets your specific needs and gives you peace of mind that you are buying from an “education preferred” supplier.
