GDS leads digital transformation in government, collaborating with teams from other departments to help them build better public services. Alongside those departmental teams, we’re transforming government together.
We work in small, agile teams of developers, designers, content people and others. We build a minimum viable product, then iterate – always asking how we can make things better for users, who are at the centre of everything we do.

The Team
The Digital Marketplace team helps government and the wider public sector find the best suppliers for their digital projects.
All public sector organisations can use the Digital Marketplace to find:
- cloud hosting, software and support
- digital specialists, for example developers and content designers
- digital outcomes, for example a booking system beta or an accessibility audit
- user research participants and labs
Our work is revolutionising how the public sector buys things. We’re working with partners across government to challenge how traditional procurement works to make both the buying and selling process simpler, clearer and faster.
