techUK is delighted to be hosting this market engagement event with the Government Property Agency (GPA). This event is an opportunity for the GPA team to provide an overview of GPA’s roadmap for delivery and to brief the market on a wide variety of upcoming procurements.
The Hubs Programme is a national programme of work transforming where and how Civil Servants work over the next 5 years+ as part of the Levelling Up agenda. To ensure effective and seamless working, Hubs will require effective IT systems integrated into all aspects of the building. As such, the GPA is looking to strategically procure innovative solutions across the following 8 product streams:
Wide Area Network (WAN)
- Shared Network (Local Area Network)
- Signal as a Service
- Audio Visual & Digital Signage
- ITSM
- Gov Print
- Room Booking
- Occupancy Management
This session will allow GPA to share its vision and outline the pipeline for upcoming tech procurements and gather more information from the market on the ‘art of the possible’.
Please note: This will be a hybrid event taking place both at the techUK office (10 St Bride Street, London EC4A 4AD) and via Microsoft Teams. The attendance at our office is limited and strictly limited to 1 attendee per supplier organisation. There is no limit to how many can attend the same event via Microsoft Teams. Please select the relevant ticket when booking your place.
The GPA is keen to explore and access a range of capabilities contained in the market, so companies of all sizes are encouraged to join. This is a great chance for the tech industry to find out how they can get involved in the Hubs Programme, so book your place now!
