138 organisations submitted valid pre-qualification questionnaires (PQQs), with 24 accepted onto the framework across seven key service Lots.

The win enables NCC Group to offer independent ICT security consultancy and delivery services to government departments, the NHS, local authorities, emergency services and other public bodies.

“This is a fantastic win for the group which will help strengthen our position as a trusted advisor to the public sector,” comments John Redeyoff, commercial development director at NCC Group plc.

“Public sector contracts are always well contested, particularly during a downturn. We’re absolutely delighted to have been selected and look forward to working with a wide range of public sector bodies on some exciting projects. The framework will give public sector customers much easier access to our services and the benefits of standard terms and conditions”
