Doing business in Public Procurement isn’t fun. Changing the way it works is.
We're developing online tools to help SMEs win more government tenders in the U.K.
Hey! It’s not a level playing field! We want SMEs to get their fair share.

96% of all businesses in The U.K. have less than 10 employees.
