Contribute to stimulating innovation in our economy by helping others to support businesses in developing the resilience they need to succeed in a digital world

CDPS often works in the engine room of transformation, powering other public sector organisations to help others in turn. It’s our goal for Welsh businesses to recognise commercial opportunities in the digital transformation of the Welsh public sector. We hope in that way to encourage a vigorous emerging supplier market in digital.

CDPS smoothed the path for Welsh suppliers to apply for public sector digital contracts by, for example, designing plain English procurement templates. Small to medium companies often lack the resources, such as inhouse bid teams, that some larger firms have. These simpler documents should make it easier for smaller companies to tender for work.

Small to medium-sized businesses have also readily taken part in the 2 communities of practice CDPS has set up, including firms such as AthensysDai: lingual and YPod Cymru.
