§ 01
The challenge
Cybersecurity SME with brilliant technology but zero government experience. G-Cloud 13 was their gateway to public sector contracts, but the service definitions, pricing models, and SFIA rate cards were completely foreign. Previous DIY attempt at G-Cloud 12 was rejected for non-compliance.
§ 02
Our approach
Fixed quote within 2 hours: a fixed fee for complete G-Cloud submission. Our government frameworks specialist translated their commercial offerings into G-Cloud service definitions. We crafted compelling service descriptions, built SFIA-aligned rate cards, and ensured every mandatory field met Crown Commercial Service requirements. Five days from kickoff to submission.
§ 03
The result
Framework place secured on first attempt. Within 3 months: £500K in direct awards. Within 12 months: £2M revenue, shortlisted for £3M Home Office contract. The G-Cloud presence opened doors they couldn't access before. Now using our partnership for all government bids.
“We'd written off government sales as too complex. Bidgen made it simple — fixed price, fast delivery, perfect first time. That investment has generated £2M and counting. Should have done it years ago.”
