@gov_procurement Good to see that the original G-10 12 month delay can be reduced to only 6 months - what does this mean for the timetable of new platform features?

Good piece on the problems of outsourcing - more direct business with SMEs would be more competitive and drive growth instead of going through too few big players https://t.co/27ZueHK4O3

I share your concerns on this @Derek_duPreez the has been some hard won progress and credibility developed by GDS in these areas which risks getting diluted with such moves https://t.co/O11iQIDwpU

That's a lot of missed sales projections and missed opportunities by cloud vendors. Vendors need to up their game on this, but we need reliable data on what buyers are looking for and when, so vendors can develop competitive services that meet needs @gov_procurement https://t.co/n197eLpjmI

@InSadly @UKDigitalFuture @DT @gdsteam @gov_procurement @davidbicknell1 @BillMew @techUK @UK_CIF @AdviceCloud Love the graphs Lindsay and the projections, the difference between current and dotted is steep, so BIG change needed in approach if wider public sector sales are to fill it. So many still in BAD deals and don't know how to use G-Cloud and DOS2

Benn letter to Davis quite interesting. Suggests DExEU not allowed to redact impact assessments ahead of sending them to Brexit committee.,

[Peter Middleton @petmiddlet]

Agree. Transformation needs the right culture, the right skills, and the right mindset to succeed. Without the right people it will fail. https://t.co/SLSORItfHx

"... in some cases, we’ve seen an incredibly sharp fall in the costs." @MattHancock can you commit to build out the G-Cloud model elsewhere?
