Nasstar has been awarded a place on the G-Cloud 15 framework by the Government Commercial Agency (GCA), formerly Crown Commercial Service. We've had 74 service listings approved across Lots 2a, 2b and 3, up from seventy on G-Cloud 14, and they're now live on the Digital Marketplace for public sector buyers.
Public sector transformation
Nasstar is pre-approved to offer cloud, data, AI and collaboration services to public sector organisations across the UK, again.
Andy Newton, Senior Bid Manager at Nasstar, said: "Getting those 74 services approved onto this framework was a significant, collaborative effort across the entire business. Every listing went through a full assessment on quality, technical capability and pricing before it was submitted. The result of this effort means that buyers will now receive modern services with the customer experience to match, not just a name on a list."
Jason Vigus, Head of Microsoft Go-To-Market (Portfolio, Marketing & Alliances) at Nasstar, said: "The real story isn't the number of listings, it's how far the portfolio has evolved. At the heart of our G-Cloud 15 offering are advanced data and agentic AI capabilities that help organisations move beyond experimentation and deliver measurable business outcomes. Combined with our cloud, security, communications and modern workplace expertise, public sector buyers can access the technology, skills and managed services needed to modernise infrastructure, improve citizen engagement and transform with confidence through a single trusted partner."

What’s on offer?
Each listing comes with service descriptions, documentation, pricing and rate cards, so buyers have what they need to make decisions quickly.
The Microsoft business unit has grown considerably since G-Cloud 14. Azure infrastructure transformation, Microsoft 365 deployment, Teams management and identity work are still core to it, but buyers can now bring in Nasstar's Copilot Studio and Foundry AI agent work too, building agents that take action rather than just answer questions. Dynamics 365's AI-enabled contact centre service is on the framework now too. So is Fabric and Power BI, from initial assessment through to delivery of usable dashboards. FinOps sits in there too, so Azure and AI spend doesn't quietly climb. Together, that's a much wider offering of the Microsoft estate than our previous G-Cloud 14 listing covered.
Colibri Digital's listings have expanded too. Going beyond data projects and through AI adoption: from ideation and proof of value, to running the agents and the data platform underneath them (Databricks, Snowflake and AWS lakehouse builds among them) as a managed service. AWS infrastructure management and application development sit alongside it too, covering the platform on which the AI and data work runs.
Security is covered with Managed Security Services and a Microsoft SOC handling the operational side, so incidents get caught and dealt with quickly.
On the network and voice side: managed connectivity, SD-WAN and SD-Branch, SASE, and managed LAN and wireless, alongside the collaboration tools that carry over from G-Cloud 14. Alcatel Rainbow Hub, Microsoft Operator Connect, Myriad Intelligent Inbound Call Routing and Teams Phone are all still there, plus OneConsultation for clinical settings, where getting a call routed to the right person matters.
What's changed with G-Cloud 15?
G-Cloud 15 runs under the Procurement Act 2023, the first G-Cloud iteration to do so. It's structured around IaaS and PaaS, infrastructure software, SaaS, and cloud support services.
The framework itself runs longer too. G-Cloud 15 is a four-year open framework rather than a shorter fixed term, and it stays open to new suppliers on an 18-month rolling basis after go-live. Call-off contracts can now run up to five years, with extensions taking some lots out to eight years total. In contrast to G-Cloud 14's shorter terms, that should mean fewer re-procurement cycles for buyers who want continuity with a supplier.
The GCA has also raised the security and quality bar. Cyber Essentials is now mandatory across every lot; Lots 1a and 1b (IaaS and PaaS) require Cyber Essentials Plus. Combined with a more thorough evaluation of quality, technical capability and pricing at the bidding stage, buyers should be able to call off services with more assurance and less due diligence of their own.
There's no cliff edge on timing. G-Cloud 14 doesn't expire until late October 2026, so there's nearly three months where both frameworks run side by side. If you're mid-procurement on G-Cloud 14, nothing forces your hand.
A partner you can trust
Nasstar's built this position over years. We hold strong Microsoft, Fortinet, Databricks and AWS partnerships, with dedicated delivery teams and accreditations behind each one rather than a name on a slide. More than 600 people work across the group, from network engineers to AI delivery squads, so the expertise behind these listings runs deep.
