I’ve won work and want to take the next steps for growth

We’ll help you grow

First of all – well done for securing work! Our experience as small business owners means that we’ve been where you are now and we know how daunting breaking into the public sector can seem: trying to find work, win work and keep it can be exhausting and often demoralising if you haven’t got the tools in place to help. So, our mission is to use our combined decades of expertise to help your organisation succeed in winning business because in doing so, we create a level playing field that allows all businesses to thrive.

Your journey – your way

The Go4Growth programme is completely free, tailored to you and includes no time commitments. You’ll get access to regular training sessions on a wide range of topics, from issues such as understanding the principles and regulations surrounding procurement, to advice on becoming carbon net zero and developing your social value narrative. You’ll also have access to a wealth of content, video ‘how tos’ and templates - all completely free of charge.

Whether you’re a micro business, SME or VCSE, we know you’ll have different skills, experience and requirements and so we fully tailor and personalise our time with you. We won’t leave you until you’re completely confident that you and your teams are ready to continue on your procurement journey. And even then, we’ll still be on hand to offer advice and support anytime you need it, all completely free of charge.

Procurement Act 2023

14 January 2025, 10:00 AM

At this event we'll take a look at a couple specific tools within the Procurement Act 2023 and go into more detail on how they work and how suppliers access them.

We'll focus on Open Frameworks - Under the Act, Frameworks (with more than one supplier) can be run for 8 years, providing it is re-opened at certain points. We'll talk through how it will work and how a Framework with only one supplier may differ. We'll chat through what to expect when they do re-open and how work is awarded under frameworks.

We'll look at Dynamic Markets and how they differ from Dynamic Purchasing Systems and discuss when they are mainly utilised and how they work.

We're delighted to be joined by Anneliese Forthergill of YPO who will help us better understand how these tools will be used and how suppliers, especially smaller organisations, can prepare to take part in bids and tenders under the new regulations
