Manchester agency secures place on Government digital framework

Manchester-based integrated communications agency, One, has been appointed to the ‘Digital Outcomes and Specialists 3 Framework’, one of the Government’s key digital services procurement platforms.

Comprising suppliers that have been selected to provide additional resources to in-house Government digital teams, the framework is available for use across the public sector, including central Government departments and arm’s-length bodies, as well as local councils and the NHS.

These organisations will now be able to access One’s digital services through a platform called the Digital Marketplace, with a potential £1.2 Billion worth of Government tenders available over this time period.

This success follows the agency’s recent accreditation as an official Google Partner and marks further development for the digital range of services offered by the agency. Being a Google Partner, a status earned by passing assessments and certifications, boosts the digital team’s capabilities when it comes to Google ad spend and skills.

Adam Friday, digital director at One, commented: “We have a comprehensive digital offering here at One, so it’s great to be recognised as a Google Partner, get the opportunity to access Government tenders and to raise our profile amongst various bodies within the public sector.

“These developments are invaluable to us as we grow the depth and breadth of our digital range of services!

“Being accepted onto the framework not only provides more opportunities to us as an agency, but potentially brings more business to the north west.”

The framework is open to public sector organisations, including agencies and arm’s-length bodies, to find services and specialists that can work on digital projects. They are able to appoint suppliers on the pre-approved list.

With a range of B2B and B2C clients across the UK and Europe, One is an IPA memberagency with a broad client roster including Hoover, Joseph Holt and United Utilities.
