Glider secures spot on Crown Commercial Service’s G-Cloud 14 Framework

Helping the public sector to procure our software and services more efficiently

The Crown Commercial Service’s (CCS) G-Cloud 14 framework allows public sector organisations to find and procure cloud computing services efficiently. With a simplified procurement process, government bodies, the NHS, local authorities have access to leading-edge cloud solutions.

Glider is listed for Lot 2 (Cloud Software) and Lot 3 (Cloud Support). This means we are perfectly positioned to offer a range of services for managing building and asset data.

Building on past success

Glider was on the G-Cloud 13 framework which led to a number of new contracts with key clients such as Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO), Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (DSTL), Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC).

These high-profile partnerships have demonstrated the strength and security of Glider’s cloud-based services, which are designed to help public sector clients harness the full potential of their building information, ensuring compliance and operational efficiency.

Nick Hutchinson, Glider’s CEO, commented on the achievement: “We are delighted to be named as a supplier on the G-Cloud 14 framework. This is a testament to our commitment to delivering secure, innovative and effective cloud services to the public sector to help them manage and maintain their built estates digitally. Our team looks forward to continuing our work with existing clients and welcoming new ones onboarded through this framework.”

Why G-Cloud 14 matters

G-Cloud 14 will replace G-Cloud 13, offering even more streamlined access to cloud services for public sector organisations. The framework covers three key service areas:

  1. Cloud Hosting Services – For organisations looking to host their infrastructure in the cloud.
  2. Cloud Software Services – Including off-the-shelf solutions, pay-as-you-go services, and custom software designed to meet organisational needs.
  3. Cloud Support Services – Covering everything from ongoing support to cloud management services.

The framework continues to support the participation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) like Glider. This emphasis on SMEs means that organisations like Glider can provide cutting-edge solutions while maintaining the flexibility and responsiveness needed to meet the unique demands of the public sector.
