UK Government spends close to £11b with Top 20 SITS suppliers

UK Government spends close to £11b per annum with the top 20 SITS suppliers to the sector. The supplier landscape has been led by the same few names for some time and the ‘usual suspects’ continue to dominate the market. However, as the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition government settles in, it is becoming clear that the now inevitable spending cuts have the potential to change the fortunes of the leading players.

Market trends – such as the move away from end-to-end outsourcing mega deals, the desire to give more control to local organisations, and the slow acceptance of the offshore players – will be accelerated as a result of the new government’s plans. The ‘next tier’ of suppliers is in an excellent position to benefit. The redistribution of revenues amongst suppliers, as major IT contracts are re-let (often in a very different form), will have a significant impact on the competitive landscape.
