text: A purchasing consortium is a "collaborative arrangement in which two or more organisations join together to combine their individual requirements for goods, works or services to gain better prices, design, supply availability and assurance benefits compared to if each member purchased the goods or services alone" (Farringdon & Lysons, 2006).
