Answer
The Government is committed to partnering with technology SMEs to deliver components of the Government’s digital strategy.
To support this, the Digital Commercial Centre of Excellence in Government Digital Service is working closely with trade bodies that represent SME’s to ensure that the SME’s get regular opportunities to engage with officials and gain a detailed understanding of the digital strategy and how the SME community can help.
These communities will be able to provide insights and provide feedback to GDS, noting that any commercial engagements will need to follow procurement regulations.
