New report: The UK government's strategic suppliers unpacked

New report: The UK government's strategic suppliers unpacked

Posted: Fri 7th Nov 2025

The UK government's 39 strategic suppliers sit at the heart of the public sector market.

Tussell's eighth annual Strategic Suppliers Report reveals how these critical companies performed in FY24/25 – and what this means for the sector.

The latest analysis reveals that the strategic suppliers are losing ground. Their share of the government market has dropped to a five-year low, and revenue is down across the board.

That means more space for other suppliers to move in, disrupt long-standing relationships and capture high-value contracts.
