G-Cloud is a UK government initiative intending to ease procurement of cloud services by public sector bodies and promote the move to cloud throughout the UK in line with government’s cloud-first policy.
Suppliers and vendors register their cloud services depending on the ‘lot’ category of either
-
- Lot 1: Cloud Hosting
- Lot 2: Cloud Software
- Lot 3: Cloud Support
G-Cloud 14 digital marketplace continues to provide a large variety of cloud based services available for public sector organisations to compare and procure. Vendors are vetted and verified by the Government Digital Service (GDS) prior to listing their services on the marketplace, meaning customers do not have to do their own full review process.
You can engage Responsiv for services related to private, hybrid, and public cloud offerings, including our Responsiv Cloud Automation Platform, Migration to Cloud Consulting Services, and much more.

How do frameworks benefit buyers?
Frameworks benefit buyers, especially in the public sector or large organisations, because they streamline procurement, reduce risk, and save time and money.
→ Buyers don’t need to run full open tenders for every purchase; suppliers on frameworks have already passed checks on financial stability, compliance (e.g. GDPR, security, insurance), quality standards, capability, and experience.
→ Frameworks eliminate the need for long procurement processes and tendering; many allow direct awards or mini-competitions, whilst frameworks like G-Cloud or CCS offer catalogues where buyers can compare and select quickly.
→ Frameworks are designed to be fully compliant with procurement regulations (e.g. UK Public Contracts Regulations 2015), so buyers avoid legal risks.
→ Framework suppliers are selected based on track record and ability to deliver, so buyers are more likely to get high-quality service or goods.
How do companies get onto frameworks?
Service providers have to apply for and win their place on a framework. This process requires they meet the required criteria, including providing evidence of financial stability, insurance, certifications (ISO, CE), case studies, and policies (modern slavery, sustainability), before being invited to tender/bid for the framework.
The tender/bid requires answers to qualification questions about quality, products and services, and pricing. These will be reviewed and the organisation awarded the framework if they meet the criteria.
Do companies need to be ISO 27001 to get on frameworks?
Most public sector frameworks will require that organisations/vendors be ISO 27001 or Cyber Essentials Plus certfied in line with government procurement guidelines. This is primarily required for cloud hosting/infrastructure, software, and IT managed service providers.
Responsiv is ISO 27001, 9001, and 14001 certified.
