The Manchester-based Morson Group has achieved significant recognition with four of its companies named as suppliers on the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) G-Cloud 14 Framework. This accolade enables these businesses to deliver an extensive range of cloud services to public sector organisations via the government’s Digital Marketplace.
For the first time, Morson Projects has been awarded G-Cloud 14 supplier status, providing services including cyber security, machine learning, and DevOps. Astraeus Consulting (‘Astraeus’) has also joined the exclusive G-Cloud 14 Lot 4 network, introduced under G-Cloud 13 to support large-scale projects focused on transitioning to cloud software and hosting services.
Astraeus is listed alongside major names such as Deloitte, Capgemini UK, and Ernst & Young, marking its position among the industry’s elite. Additionally, Bridge Technology Partners and InterQuest, both part of the Morson Group, have retained their supplier status, enhancing their dynamic offerings of cloud-based solutions for public sector buyers.
“We are incredibly proud to join the government’s G-Cloud 14 Framework,” said Gareth Beck, Operational Director of Morson Projects. “Our teams are looking forward to helping framework buyers maximise the value and impact of their IT project investments, whether they take the form of complex change projects or smaller discrete work packages, by delivering effective and efficient solutions to their challenges.”
Linton Ward, Managing Director of Astraeus, expressed his enthusiasm:
“We are thrilled to be awarded approved supplier status on this second iteration of the G-Cloud Lot 4 framework – an accolade which is testament to our business’s growth and ongoing expansion of consulting services offered to the public sector. Being part of this exclusive network of Lot 4 suppliers provides an incredibly exciting opportunity for Astraeus to support larger-scale projects and accelerate digital change across the public sector.”
Andy Wadsworth, Director at Bridge Technology Partners, highlighted the benefits of their services:
“Our portfolio of cloud-based services offer public sector organisations new opportunities to maximise efficiency, catalyse innovation and unlock value creation – as we continue working together to empower the transformation of future-ready public services.”
Ged Mason, Chief Executive of the Morson Group, reflected on the achievement:
“As a Group, we are incredibly proud of this achievement. Securing G-Cloud 14 awards across four of our entities and extending the scope of our current capability to encompass the incredibly prestigious Lot 4, is testament to our technical expertise, robust project governance, commitment to innovation and empowered approach to zero dependency. I am excited to see each entity leverage its unique strengths to accelerate digital transformation across the public sector.”
The G-Cloud 14 Framework became active on 29 October 2024, with services now available to public sector organisations via the Digital Marketplace.
