iProov, the world-leader in cloud-based biometric face authentication, is one of the companies that has been awarded G-Cloud Supplier Status by the UK’s Crown Commercial Service (CCS).
The G-Cloud framework enables public sector departments and organizations to source cloud technology services easily and securely.
iProov’s inclusion in the marketplace further solidifies our position as the leading supplier of online biometric authentication, facial verification, and digital onboarding services to the government and public sector.
The UK government’s G-Cloud initiative has been active since 2012 as part of the wider “Cloud First” policy. It was created so that public sector bodies could access cloud computing technology while shortening the procurement process.
The G-Cloud framework governs the relationship between cloud suppliers and the Crown Commercial Service. The Digital Marketplace acts as an online catalog of the suppliers that have been approved. Government employees can search through the marketplace for trusted providers, and teams can be sure that suppliers listed on the G-Cloud meet UK Government standards.
Being approved on G-Cloud requires a stringent submission process and only certain companies are allowed to appear on the marketplace. Just 5000 suppliers made it into this year’s G-Cloud framework.
The government releases a new version of the G-Cloud framework around every 9 months. More than £7 billion worth of cloud services have been purchased using the G-Cloud framework since its inception.
iProov can be found on G-Cloud for a number of services. These include:
iProov’s inclusion in the framework further builds on our position as a trusted service provider to public sectors and governments. We work closely with governments and public sectors across the world, including the Australian government, the US Department of Homeland Security, and GovTech Singapore. Genuine Presence Assurance is trusted by government and public sector organizations because it provides the utmost security, without compromising user experience or inclusivity.
G-Cloud also reflects continued support from the UK government; we have been working with the UK Home Office since November 2019, working with Worldreach Software to support the EU Settlement Scheme.
This is the third year iProov has been included on the G-Cloud Digital Marketplace – we have been a verified supplier on both G-Cloud 10 and 11, offering cloud technology services to the UK public sector for several years. We have four products currently listed on G-Cloud:
