This is the latest instalment of an exclusive series analysing the UK’s biggest public sector tech deals. Every week, in partnership with data analysis firm Tussell, we drill down into the most valuable tenders and awards from the last seven days. Here’s what we found this week…
The biggest tender of the week comes from the Crown Commercial Service, which has issued the 11th edition of its G-Cloud framework. The framework provides the means for public sector organisations across the country to procure a range of IT services, including cloud hosting services and security software, from a list of approved suppliers. Companies which are already listed on G-Cloud 10 have been asked to reapply. The deadline for applications is 14 May and the framework is worth just shy of £2bn.
