I previously led a team of analysts at GlobalData specialising in how technology is procured and used across the UK Public Sector. My research specialised in local government, though I previously covered education and emergency services. This involved researching and writing reports on a broad range of ICT procurement/use across the UK public sector, market sizing and forecasting, and advising technology and service providers via frequent briefings.
