Our ambition is to remove the barriers SMEs face in procuring and delivering on public sector work to help strengthen localised economies.
Upward of £400 billion is awarded to private businesses annually. Only 20% are awarded to SMEs yet they employ 61% of the UK private workforce. By making tools and contracting seamless, SMEs can bring their inate talent to the table without spending valuable time dealing with the nuances present in public procurement.
The main reasons for low involvement for public sector contracts are: - Bureaucratic processes that are difficult to navigate - Limited capacity to prepare, tailor and submit bids - Lack of resources to manage contract delivery alongside core operations
Arkadian provides two tailored solutions to simplify public sector contracting for SMEs.For those seeking independent control, our digital tools, including the contract aggregator and compliance scanner, streamline contract discovery, preparation, and delivery.
For businesses looking to minimise the administrative burden, our comprehensive contracting service manages the entire process from bidding and procurement to contract execution and delivery. This allows SMEs to focus on their core work without the complexities of public procurement.
