Strategic Suppliers to the UK Government Strategic Suppliers to the UK Government 2018/19 Update September 2019 Trusted insight on government contracts and spend Tussell Strategic Suppliers Update September 2019 Public procurement is a market worth 10% of UK GDP, making the government the largest and most influential customer in the country. The Spending Round in early September 2019 announced measures that will actually increase the size of public spending as a proportion of GDP for the first time since 2010. With both main parties talking up investment in infrastructure and an end to austerity this looks set to continue into 2020 and beyond. Despite this market potential, the last two years have been a turbulent time to be a major supplier to government. From the collapse of Carillion to a number of high-profile IT contract failures, many questions have been raised over the model of outsourcing and large contractors have often been in the news for all the wrong reasons. In a climate of public controversy, media scrutiny and investor scepticism about suppliers to government, it is easy to lose sight of the facts. Without them, it is impossible for firms to navigate a shifting market, for government to monitor value for money, or for the media to scrutinise public spending. That is why we think it’s more important than ever to monitor the Strategic Suppliers*: the 34 firms deemed so vital to the functioning of public services that the Cabinet Office centrally manages the government’s relationship with them. This report is the latest in our series monitoring government spend with the Strategic Suppliers. In it we analyse the performance of the 34 firms in the government’s last financial year and examine the very diverse strategies these firms employ to survive and thrive in the public sector marketplace. Key Findings: · Central & Local Government spent more than £10bn on the 34 Strategic Suppliers in the 2018/19 financial year. · However their strong market positions are under pressure – their market share declined by 15% year on year. · There is considerable variance in the go-to-market strategy of the Strategic Suppliers, even those operating in the same sector. · While Central Government is the main source of revenue for the Strategic Suppliers, Local Government appears to be under-penetrated by several of them. · Four Central Government departments are responsible for three quarters of all spend with the strategic suppliers – the MoD, DfT, Home Office and DWP. · Looking ahead, while some of the Strategic Suppliers face risk of revenue attrition from upcoming contract expirations, others have seen particularly positive rates of revenue replacement from new contracts won. Our report shows that the government’s policy of diversifying its direct suppliers in order to reduce over-reliance on a core group of companies is broadly achieving its goal. While this is good news for public services – a more diverse supply chain is more competitive, innovative and efficient – it also means that the Strategic Suppliers are operating in an increasingly challenging environment. These firms cannot take their relationship with the public sector for granted and will have to continue to evolve their strategies and to improve their execution in order to defend – let alone build on – their strong market position. * For more info on who the Strategic Suppliers are, see Appendix 1 of this report. Strategic Suppliers Update . More than half of public sector spend on Strategic Suppliers goes to construction and engineering firms Market intel: Who are your competitors top public sector Central and Local Government authorities spent more than £10bn on the Strategic Suppliers in the last financial year customers? alone. The majority of spend went on suppliers in the construction and engineering industries – the same as was spent on IT, outsourcing, consulting and telecoms combined. In contrast to other sectors, spend on the major consulting firms is fairly evenly split amongst the firms.

Despite this, market share? faster growth in the value of contracts awarded to all other suppliers meant that their overall market share actually shrank by 15% year-on-year - down from a high of 14.4% in 2015/16 to 10.2% in 2o18/19. Year-on-year market share of the Strategic Suppliers since April 2015 by proportion of total public sector contract award value £81.7B £80B £70B £63.2B £59.8B £60B £56.4B £50B £40B Award Value Award £30B £20B £10B £8.1B £6.5B £7.2B £8.3B £0B 14.4% 10.3% 12.0% 10.2% FY 15/16 FY 16/17 FY 17/18 FY 18/19 Strategic Suppliers Update Page 2 Companies adopting diverse public sector strategies Market intel: How exposed are your competitors to If it’s safe to say the government is actively managing its over-reliance on the Strategic Suppliers, then it appears that the individual contracts? companies are adapting to this environment in different ways. Some companies focus on large cornerstone contracts, while others build a portfolio of smaller pieces of work.

  • Design Checks for Electrical Services
    A BSRIA Guide www.bsria.co.uk Design Checks for Electrical Services A quality control framework for electrical engineers By Kevin Pennycook Supported by BG 3/2006 Design considerations Design issues Calculations Systems and equipment PREFACE Donald Leeper OBE The publication of Design Checks for Electrical Services is a welcome addition to the well received and highly acclaimed Design Checks for HVAC, published in 2002. The design guidance sheets provide information on design inputs, outputs and practical watch points for key building services design topics. The guidance given complements that in CIBSE Guide K, Electricity in Buildings, and is presented in a format that can be easily incorporated into a firm’s quality assurance procedures. From personal experience I have seen the benefit of such quality procedures. Once embedded within a process information management system, the guidance in this book will ensure consistent and high quality design information. When used for validation and verification, the design checks and procedures can also make a key contribution to a risk management strategy. The easy-to-follow layout and the breadth of content makes Design Checks for Electrical Services a key document for all building services engineers.

    Technical Journal 09 Papers 135 - 149 Welcome to the ninth edition of the Atkins Technical Journal which features papers covering a wide range of technologies but with many common themes. A great example of this comes from our asset management work where our Highways and Transportation business is leading the way in advising clients on maintaining availability of highway networks, while the paper on Skynet 5 shows we are doing the same in our Defence, Aerospace and Communications business for satellites. Innovation and thought leadership is evident in all the papers; we have transferred learning from our Aerospace teams to our Bridge teams to produce Fibre Reinforced Polymer bridge prototypes and we have led the global sustainability debate in diverse areas such as the implementation of electric vehicles, environmentally acceptable waste disposal techniques and biomass combined heat and power technologies. We are constantly extending and improving current industry practices across all that we do, informing the next generation of codes of practice. The papers here present examples from such diverse areas as the treatment of water run-off from highways to the fatigue of stranded cables under vibration. I hope you enjoy the selection of technical papers included in this edition. This ninth Journal, and all previous editions, are available on our external website.
