The DOS 7 (Digital Outcomes and Specialists) framework ITT has been released and is an excellent opportunity for UK businesses to secure public sector work. Here at Tsaks Consulting, we have experience helping with helping clients secure placement of the previous DOS frameworks and helping them secure work out of it.
What are the different Lots?
The framework is split into four separate lots including:
- Lot 1: Digital outcomes: This is a panel/lot for public sector organisations looking for full digital delivery teams to work across all the different phases of the digital process. They are looking for suppliers and providers to assist with the alpha, beta, live, and retirement. They are generally outcomes-based projects.
- Lot 2: Digital Specialists: This is focused on individual specialists which have a specific skillet. It is great for small and medium enterprises as well as individual consultants who want to win government work and have a highly specialised skill. Our team helps consultants write the submission for the ITT for this lot and sometimes secure their first framework award.
- Lot 3: User Research Studios: User research is critical for many organisations in developing digital services. This Lot is designed for suppliers who provide physical spaces and have the capability to conduct user research.
- Lot 4: User Research Participants: This is for recruitment providers or suppliers who have the network and capability to recruit and manage participants for user research programs. Providing this service may appeal to different organisations who have the capability to provide and recruit research participants.
The application opened on May 12, and the deadline is June 20 – 2025.
What businesses across the UK may apply for DOS 7
Any business who can provide the services detailed in the Lots can apply for DOS 7. You will of course need to comply with all of the mandatory criteria. Examples of businesses that will deliver these types of services and will typically apply include digital transformation and services providers, developers, designers, project managers, business analysts, as well as digital agencies, consultancies, and systems integrators.
In addition, we have helped many SMEs and consultants apply for previous DOS ITT agreements. They will also consider applying including product managers, Software developers, User researchers, data scientists, cyber security experts, performance analysts and Technical architects.
