Overview
Future Supplier Services (FSS) is a strategic buying programme to procure a variety of Visas and Citizenship (V&C) Directorate operations. Its remit therefore covers the definition of requirements, running the procurements to deliver those services as well as mobilising those contracts and delivering them into business as usual operations.
In order to complete this task it is seeking industry insight to assist in defining its future vision for outsourced services. Additional information: The authority is intending to host a supplier engagement event to be held on the 8 and 9 July 2020.
Each event will be identical in its structure and facilitated on behalf of the Home Office by the company techUK.The event will provide attendees with an update on V&C's future direction and vision and the opportunity to hear about developing high-level commercial requirements. The ensuing round table discussions will provide an opportunity to challenge or validate V&C's thinking and share your views on the art of the possible as subject matter experts.
