Advent IM today announced it’s availability on the UK Government’s Digital Outcomes and Specialists framework. This framework is for public bodies and agencies to directly procure digital specialists and Advent IM is now available to these bodies for Cyber Security Specialist Consulting services, in addition to the UK G-Cloud framework. G-Cloud has carried a comprehensive range of Advent IM services for several iterations.
This new Government supplier framework is available to all sizes of business, but is particularly accessible to smaller businesses, which may have struggled with the time resource required for the previously more lengthy application process. The simplified process will allow for a diversity of supplier and great choice for the user. You can view the beat version of the new framework at https://www.digitalmarketplace.service.gov.uk/buyers/frameworks/digital-outcomes-and-specialists/requirements/digital-specialists
Advent IM Operations Director, Julia McCarron said, “We know how important it is to have straightforward process when it comes to procuring cyber security consulting and we welcome the new simplified format. If it means users have a cleaner experience and are able to get the services they need with confidence, then it is better for everyone.”
