SUPPORTING COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE PUBLIC
SECTOR
HOW WE ARE DIFFERENT
Working commercially is about using assets and capabilities to deliver outcomes in the most efficient and effective way to create a net benefit to the bottom-line finances.
It is as much about avoiding costs through early intervention and prevention and taking a business-like approach as it is about developing new projects.
​
We have supported well over 100 clients across the public sector with this broad definition of ‘commercial’, delivering 100s of millions in net benefit to the public purse.
The following pages give more information on how we can support you together with case studies from other clients.
COMMERCIAL GOV PROVIDED AN EXCELLENT FOUNDATION FOR COMMERCIAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE ORGANIZATION THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT OF A COMMERCIAL STRATEGY, DELIVERING A SUITE OF BUSINESS CASES AND SUPPORTING CAPABILITY AND CULTURE DEVELOPMENT. THEY WORKED AT PACE, BALANCING REVENUE GENERATION WITH COST REDUCTION, AND ALWAYS COGNIZANT OF PRACTICAL ROUTES TO DELIVERY
