The UK’s leading independent, holistic security consultancy announced on Monday 1st October 2018 that they will be offering their services from the new iteration Digital Outcomes and Specialists Framework 3. 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 Specialists Consulting services, in addition to the G-Cloud framework.

This Government supplier framework is available to all sizes of business, but particularly accessible to smaller businesses, which may have struggled with the time resource required for the previously lengthier application process. The simplified process will allow for a diversity of suppliers and great choice for the user.

Advent IM Operations Director, Julia McCarron said,
“It has taken a while for the framework to become established and used to procure specialist cyber security services but I am pleased to say that in the last 6 months we have seen a definite upturn in opportunities. We are therefore delighted to be part of the framework’s 3rd iteration and hope to benefit further from its growing popularity.”

The Digital Outcomes and Specialists and G-Cloud are accessed through the Digital Marketplace to make government procurement easier, faster and more transparent.
