Arcus Cloud Solution Brokerage & Implementation

We can broker and supply services from a wide range of cloud service providers operating across the infrastructure, software, platform, storage, and desktop-as-a-service spectrum.

We will identify, negotiate and contract on your behalf, allowing you to procure any solution via the G-Cloud framework.

We’ll work with you to understand your requirements, explore the market and negotiate the most appropriate commercial terms. This includes tackling issues such as contractual terms, capital / revenue splits, foreign currency risk, VAT and other taxes.

Unique G-Cloud offering

Available since G-Cloud 1, our service provides the best and most appropriate combination of cloud solutions to our clients, whether or not they are available on the G-Cloud framework

Access to the best niche providers

Despite the success of the G-Cloud framework, many of the best niche providers we have access to are not yet enrolled in the UK catalogue and are not part of any UK procurement framework, so they are unlikely to respond to public sector tenders

Architecture and deployment / implementation services

We offer a range of services for those customers wanting more support with integrating and implementing these technologies

Business case and benefits realisation

We’ll create a business case, run a mini-competition between a select group of potential suppliers, and write a full justification on your behalf (SFIA rates will apply)

Access any cloud technology within or outside of G-Cloud

There are no constraints when you’re selecting the services you need, and we will make the relevant solution available via G-Cloud

Choose the best vendors

We’ll work with you to identify the right solution combination for your specific requirement. This can include a single or multiple vendors, and they don't have to be on G-Cloud or even operate in the UK market

Proven methodology and expertise in solution selection

Our unique tools and methodologies mean you avoid the typical pitfalls of purchasing a new solution, especially when it is outside the G-Cloud framework

We’ll handle exchange rates, tax and pre-payment

We can handle foreign currency transactions, tax and pre-payment issues, saving you time and money

Clear, transparent pricing

We are completely transparent in all of our dealings so you always know the costs involved

Multiple vendor offerings can work together

We combine the vendor offerings into a complete solution and we contract with the third parties on your behalf to negotiate the best terms
