    Do many contractors use Government frameworks?

    I've been on the UK Gov Digital Specialists one for the current and previous offering and didn't see much being offered. Got my current contract via the Welsh Gov framework, but again not much on there.

    Is G-Cloud much busier?

      No and they shouldn't really. They kicked all the one man bands off at G cloud 9 ir I remember rightly and suggest the Digital Outcomes path instead. Maybe they've relaxed again. I thought about getting on them when I was in a public sector gig but never bothered.

        The support side of things may work for a one man band on G-Cloud?

        I've seen quite a bit on the DOS framework but the timing has never been right. Now I'm available, there's not a lot available for my skill set

          I was on G cloud 10 (I didn't do 11 as I missed the deadline due to other work) but you are really looking at the products you sell and the consultancy that goes around them rather than selling straight forward consultancy.

          I will be applying for G Cloud 12 but everything will be around a particular set of products (mainly our own but with a few of the MS ones we build on top of) with consultancy added to ensure the end clients make the most of it. I have an inkling I have some offerings most people won't have thought of.

          For most contractors Digital outcomes is the one you want to be on - I also missed that last year which meant I didn't get a £1000 a day contract..
          merely at clientco for the entertainment
