Northgate Managed Services is set to further grow its business across the UK after being awarded a place on the Buying Solutions IT Managed Services framework agreement.
Awarded by Buying Solutions, the national procurement partner for the UK public sector, the new framework agreement provides the UK’s public sector with a wide range of IT services from remote access to fully managed IT services.
Following a highly contested selection process, Northgate is now one of twelve suppliers who have been awarded a framework agreement. The awards are based on a range of criteria including service delivery, customer services, sustainability and pricing and contractual considerations.
Andy Ross, Chief Executive of Northgate Managed Services, said: “This is good news for Northgate Managed Services as we continue to offer cost effective services. The new framework allows us to provide the public sector with our full range of IT services, from remote access to fully managed IT services.
We recognise the challenges and economic pressures facing the public sector and believe our positioning on the framework agreement will help address these by offering cost efficiencies while maximising quality of service. “
