LONDON, 2012-10-08 10:00 CEST (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
GovDelivery announced today the Cabinet Office's Government Digital Service
(GDS) has signed a contract to leverage GovDelivery's Digital Communication
Management (DCM) solution. This deal represents GovDelivery's largest UK
contract to date, as well as being one of the largest CloudStore procurement
deals announced since the Catalogue was published earlier this year.
Under the agreement, the Inside Government content of the GOV.UK website will
use GovDelivery's DCM platform to provide email notification services to help
the users of government policy information stay up to date when things change.
A spokesperson from Cabinet Office said, 'The Inside Government content on
GOV.UK is where people who are personally or professionally interested in the
business of government will be able to research how government works and see
what it is doing. With the DCM platform we will meet our user needs for timely
alerts when information changes.'
The GovDelivery platform is a proven digital communications solution driving
successful results for other UK-based government agencies like Parliament,
Driving Standards Agency, Department for Business Innovation&Skills and the
Met Office. On the forefront of government communication technology,
GovDelivery understands digital government trends, and can help clients utilise
and leverage them quickly. GovDelivery will offer Inside Government users lots
of choice, allowing them to receive alerts and notifications on many different
topics of interest. This granularity means the DCM solution will better serve
researchers and stakeholders, delivering only the information they need when
they want it.
GDS used the CloudStore catalogue to procure the GovDelivery solution quickly
and efficiently and aim to have the service implemented in as little as 10
working days.
'We are very proud to have been chosen by GDS to support an exciting and
important initiative like the Inside Government pages on the GOV.UK website.
GovDelivery will be a vital tool in helping GDS keep citizens up to date with
the latest government news, policy, consultations and publications,' said Dave
Worsell, Director, Government Solutions with GovDelivery UK. 'We view this as a
testament to the high value GovDelivery's solutions provide in driving
successful citizen outreach and digital engagement across the UK. We are
committed to continuing to serve the UK and international public sector with
proven solutions that scale and deliver the most value to government
organisations of all sizes.'
