Public Sector

Our professional services are helping improve vital public services.

Gemserv – A Trusted Partner to the Public Sector

Gemserv specialises in consultancy and outsourcing services. Through our expertise – such as in digital transformation, cyber security and programme management – we are helping address challenges right across the public sector.

We understand the increasing pressure to deliver ever-more efficient and tailored services, while keeping costs under control. This includes the drive to place more services online, the increasing use of artificial intelligence and machine learning to speed up delivery, and understanding the potential value of the vast amount of data held by public bodies.

Gemserv is able to draw on deep experience – whether that’s supporting the government’s roll out of 53m smart meters across Great Britain or helping a major police service to handle its facilities management information securely – and we stand ready to help other public sector organisations with their digital journey.

Public Sector's Industry Expertise

  •  

    Governance Design: Broadband and Landline Switching

    The UK communications regulator – Ofcom – required the implementation of a centralised and streamlined switching process for broadband and landline customers.

  •  

    Governance Design: Circular Economy and the EPR

    Government committed to introducing packaging Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). Whilst the benefits of introducing an EPR are clear, there are numerous approaches to implementing it.

  •  

    Procurement and Procurement Support

    A state-owned economic development organisation (set up by the Government) needed to identify and procure a suitable Fund Manager to administer an investment fund on its behalf.

  •  

    Scheme Management: Smart Metering

    The Smart Energy Code defines the rights and obligations of energy suppliers, network operators and other parties involved in the end-to-end management of the roll out of 53m smart meters in GB.

  •  

    Scheme Governance and Design: Microgeneration Certification Scheme

    The MCS is a standards organisation that was founded in 2006. It certifies low-carbon installations and installers used to produce electricity and heat from renewable sources.

  •  

    Grant Management Schemes: Heat Network Investment Project

    BEIS wanted to promote heat networks installation and they needed a service to assess and process applications for grant funding.

  •  

    Regulation and Regulation Management: Switch Energy Supplier

    Competition in the energy market is governed through the Retail Energy Code which consolidated multiple switching arrangements into a single regulatory code.

Social Value

As a purpose-driven business we understand the opportunity to drive better social and environmental outcomes through public procurement. Leveraging the nearly £300bn in annual spend by ensuring social value is evaluated in bids is a positive move by the government, and Gemserv can help procuring authorities and those bidding for contracts fulfil this new requirement.
