The Bunker
The G-Cloud Programme is a cross government initiative and aims to streamline the governmentโs interaction with its technology suppliers, to achieve economies of scale. The Cabinet Office is targeting half of all new IT spend to go through the G-Cloud by 2015, and estimates it is already saving some departments up to 90pc in IT spend.
Graham Spivey Sales and Marketing Director at The Bunker said: โCloud computing has brought about a step change in the economics and sustainability of IT procurement, a message reiterated earlier this month with the Cabinet Officeโs announcement that the government now has a cloud-first buying policy. Our inclusion on the G Cloud framework is a clear demonstration of the UK government’s commitment to leveraging innovation through the diverse and valuable knowledge pool that sits within the nationโs SMEs.โ
And Peter Ford, Business Consultant at The Bunker added: โThe Bunker is delighted to have been selected by the Government Procurement Service to be a supplier on the G-Cloud framework. We look forward to engaging and working with a wide range of public sector bodies on some exciting projects.โ
The Bunker operates data centres housed within two former MOD nuclear bunkers in Newbury, Berkshire and Ash, Kent. For further information, visit, www.thebunker.net
