GPhC is in the process of migrating its IT services to the cloud and will have clarity as to its future IT requirements once such migration is complete, and further detail will be available closer to the approach to market.This is a potential opportunity from the government, and the pipeline gives advance notice of an opportunity that might be offered by the public sector in the future – allowing potential suppliers to plan accordingly.
