Re: Not just NHS
True. They quote a notional cost of £50 to add a new supplier to the books, all the companies house look ups and credit checks etc etc. staff time etc etc.
Then they hire someone else who goes through the suppliers list every year and removes anyone who hasn't had an order placed in that time, so the odd thing here and there which you only need every few years or so like bespoke LTO cart labels, you have to go through the whole process of getting them approved again...
