A G-Cloud place followed by £500K in direct awards

We helped a cybersecurity SME prepare its G-Cloud 13 submission. The business secured £500K in direct awards within three months and generated £2M revenue in twelve months.

The challenge

A cybersecurity SME wanted to sell through G-Cloud 13 after an unsuccessful G-Cloud 12 application. It needed help with service definitions, pricing information and SFIA rate cards, as well as the rest of the submission.

§ 02

Our approach

We agreed a fee for the submission and worked with the business to describe its services in the required format. The response included service definitions, SFIA-aligned rate cards and the mandatory application information. The work took five days from kick-off to submission.

The result

The business won a place on G-Cloud 13. It secured £500K in direct awards within three months and generated £2M revenue within twelve months. It was also shortlisted for a £3M Home Office contract, and continued working with Bidgen on government bids.

“We'd written off government sales as too complex. Bidgen made it simple; fast delivery, perfect first time. That investment has generated £2M and counting. Should have done it years ago.”
