Cath Rooney talks about how we've been applying the GDS design principles to government procurement.
Why are we doing this discovery? The Digital Marketplace has encouraged many small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to start providing cloud technology and digital services to government.
During the G-Cloud 8 application and award process, the Digital Marketplace team used GOV.UK Notify to communicate with suppliers.
Suppliers who applied to supply their services through G-Cloud 8 (G8) will find out the result of their application by the end of the day today.
Last month, we told buyers and suppliers that new G-Cloud features will be available soon. The first of these features is now live and G-Cloud suppliers can remove the services that they’re no longer able to provide.
We’ve been working with the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) and the Government Legal Department (GLD) to find an efficient, legally compliant way for G-Cloud suppliers to update their services.
The aim of the Digital Marketplace is to make it simpler, clearer and faster for those in the public sector to buy what they need.
