Korean Teachers’ Credit Union Joins Hands with Daegu Office of Education to Promote Public Procurement

The Korean Teachers’ Credit Union will join forces with the Daegu Metropolitan Office of Education to promote public procurement as part of efforts to realize social value.

On August 10, the credit union announced that it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Daegu Office of Education to boost public procurement, thereby supporting the realization of social value in educational institutions and fostering mutually beneficial cooperation with local companies. The signing ceremony was held in the Yeomin Room at the main building of the Daegu Office of Education.

The credit union plans to guide and promote registration for S2B (the Public Procurement System for Educational Institutions) among companies operated by persons with disabilities and socially disadvantaged enterprises. It will also actively support training and education on the use of the S2B system to encourage priority purchasing in educational institutions at all levels.

The Daegu Office of Education will provide guidance on the use of S2B for all educational institutions in the region, encourage its utilization, and regularly conduct training sessions and workshops for frontline educational staff on public organizations’ priority purchasing via S2B, in order to materially expand actual procurement.

Jung Gab-yoon, Chairman of the Korean Teachers’ Credit Union, said, "Our collaboration with the Daegu Office of Education has further strengthened the role of S2B as a core platform for priority purchasing within public institutions," adding, "We will spare no effort in providing tailored education and promotional support so that companies operated by persons with disabilities and socially disadvantaged enterprises can more easily enter and grow in the education market."
