01 November 2024 – London – Earth-i has pleased to announce that we have been awarded a framework contract on the Crown Commercial Services (CCS) G-Cloud 14 framework, covering cloud hosting services, cloud software services and associated support services.
As part of the UK Government’s CloudFirst policy, all public sector organisations can use the G-Cloud 14 agreement to buy cloud-based computing services such as hosting, software, and cloud support, including many off-the-shelf, pay-as-you-go cloud solutions..
Earth-i will be providing Geospatial Cloud Software and Geospatial Cloud Consultancy and Support Services. This will give government access to Earth-i’s SAVANT cloud platform, as well to Planet Labs Planet Insights Platform and Blacksky Spectra Platforms and associated services.
G-Cloud 14 will make it easier than ever for current and potential public sector clients to engage with Earth-i and access market leading geospatial services.
Unlike its predecessor G-Cloud 13, G-Cloud 14 is direct award only. This allows Central Government departments, local authorities, arm’s-length bodies (ALBs) and Higher Education institutions to buy our services directly through the new G-Cloud catalogue, without the need to go through a lengthy and often time-consuming tender process.
This will enable Earth-i to respond more quickly to our clients’ business needs, making it easy to deliver complex solutions quickly and efficiently. All G-Cloud suppliers have to undergo a strict assessment, which in turn provides public sector buyers with confidence of assured outcomes.
