Why Partner with an SME?
A successful partnership with an SME in the UK public sector relies on choosing SMEs that bring specific, strategic qualities to the table.
Relevant Experience
An SME’s familiarity with the nuances of public sector projects can be invaluable. Look for SMEs with prior experience in government contracts, as they will be more accustomed to the expectations, documentation, and approval processes involved.
Skills & Expertise
SME’s can offer access to skilled professionals, adding value and momentum to your projects, plugging skills gaps and creating knowledge transfer. This all creates improved outcomes and buyer satisfaction.
Innovation Mindset
SMEs that thrive on innovative approaches can add value by introducing new technologies and methodologies. This helps differentiate your bid and meet the UK government’s drive for digital innovation.
Understanding Compliance
Security, GDPR, and data privacy compliance are critical in government contracts. SMEs that demonstrate strong compliance measures and familiarity with government policies are valuable partners.
Agility in Project Delivery
SMEs can adapt to changing project needs quickly, which is invaluable in fast-paced or high-stakes public sector projects.
