WHERE PUBLIC SECTOR PROCUREMENT BREAKS DOWN
When your public-sector IT procurement should be GCA-compliant by default
Most public-sector buyers waste months on bespoke tenders that could run through Government Commercial Agency frameworks. We fix the procurement path.
Bespoke tenders take 12+ months
✕
Open tenders, OJEU-style processes and bespoke evaluation take a year before kit arrives. Project plans slip, budget windows close, and rivals catch up while you procure.
✓
GCA frameworks (G-Cloud 15, TePAS 2/RM6098) collapse procurement from months to weeks. Award is direct, terms are pre-agreed.
Wrong framework, wrong supplier
✕
Buyers pick the wrong GCA framework or shortlist suppliers without the right Lot accreditation. Award gets challenged or rolled back, and rerunning the process costs months.
✓
We advise on framework choice (G-Cloud vs TePAS vs Crown Hosting), Lot mapping, and produce a compliant shortlist.
Compliance evidence is missing
✕
Award documentation lacks security clearances, modern slavery statements, accessibility evidence, social-value commitments. Audit findings follow.

Public Sector IT Procurement FAQ
What GCA frameworks is Transputec listed on?
Transputec is a Government Commercial Agency approved supplier on G-Cloud 15 (Lot 2a, infrastructure software, and Lot 3, cloud support services) and TePAS 2 (RM6098) covering Lot 2 (hardware and associated services), Lot 3 (software and solutions) and Lot 8 (technology catalogue). See our full certifications and frameworks for details.
Can we award without running a full competition?
Yes, where the requirement meets the criteria. On G-Cloud 15 the route is Award Without Competition, which applies where an existing catalogue entry already meets a straightforward requirement. On TePAS 2 it is direct award, for example against a defined hardware spec under Lot 2. Where neither applies we run further competitions on your behalf. Both paths collapse procurement from 12+ months (open tender) to 2-6 weeks with full GCA compliance.
How do you meet social value requirements?
Social Value Model commitments are evidenced quarterly: charity partnerships, apprenticeship programmes, sustainability (WEEE-compliant disposal, ESG-credit reporting), local supplier engagement, and accessibility commitments. We deliver against your contract’s specific social value targets and produce audit evidence as standard.
Which security certifications does Transputec hold for NHS procurement?
Transputec holds ISO 27001 information security certification and Cyber Essentials Plus per UK NCSC standards. NHS buyers can use our G-Cloud 15 and TePAS 2 (RM6098) listings with confidence that data-protection, modern slavery and accessibility evidence is in place.
What does it cost and how does payment work?
Pricing follows GCA framework rate cards (G-Cloud 15 price list or TePAS 2 unit pricing). Payment terms align with public-sector standard 30-day terms. The free GCA framework call scopes your requirements and produces a costed proposal mapped to the right Lot before any commitment.
Do you handle disposal and recycling of decommissioned IT equipment?
Yes. Transputec offers WEEE-compliant disposal and secure data wipe for decommissioned IT equipment procured through our framework supply. Sustainability is built in: ESG-credit reporting, charity reuse where viable, and environmentally responsible recycling. We aim to exceed regulatory minimums and proactively promote sustainable practices across the IT asset lifecycle. See our sustainability programme for full detail.
