A friend of mine works in the public sector, and using an agent saves on the bureaucracy. They need to find three separate providers/offers, and then choose cheapest option... so they call an agency, tell them where they want to go and when, what hotel, and that they need two more expensive options too,... so an agency calls other friendly agencies, tell them what (higher) price they need, and the public sector worker gets what they need with minimal work.
