247 Time secures place on £3.2bn G-Cloud 10 Framework

247 Time, the Leicester-based HR and payroll software provider, has secured a place on the prestigious G-Cloud 10 framework.

The news means that 247 Time’s revolutionary software, which has saved organisations hundreds of millions of pounds, will be available to government departments through the framework.

David Brooks, managing director of 247 Time, said: “G-Cloud 10 is the kitemark that buyers look for when procuring multimillion pound cloud technology and support services. This removes the need for 247 Time to enter lengthy and expensive tender processes and keeps prices consistent for our clients.

“The G-Cloud allows the public sector to buy cloud-based digital services off the shelf, avoiding lock-in to expensive contracts with single suppliers, and encouraging cost-effective, innovative and flexible solutions.

“It also provides economies of scale and delivers ICT systems that are responsive to demand in order to support government strategies. G-Cloud allows procurement in a way that encourages an innovative marketplace where SMEs can compete and offer their services directly alongside big players.”

David added: “As we are growing at an exceptional rate, a mechanism like the G-cloud allows many NHS trusts as well as councils procure 247 Time quickly as we have already passed the governments vetting process.”

Through G-Cloud 10, 247 Time will offer its whole portfolio, which includes:

• The 247 Time temporary management system

• A process where temporary workers can be paid directly or via traditionally through the supplying agency

• A booking system which includes bank workers and collaborative working and removes agency use

• Payroll services for temporary workers and bank workers

247 Time has secured a place on every G-Cloud framework since G-Cloud 2 in 2012. The potential income generation through the framework is estimated at £3.2bn.
