The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) is looking for new suppliers to bring innovative ICT solutions as both its contracts with IBM and Capgemini are due to expire in June 2018.

According to Public Technology, the programme was “recently ranked amber-red by the Infrastructure and Projects Authority”, which means it needs reviewing for it to be successful.
