Independent IT infrastructure and storage specialist, Q Associates, has been named as an approved supplier under the UK Government’s G-Cloud 4 procurement framework.

The appointment opens up opportunities for Q Associates to expand its operations in the public sector. The company already provides technology services to more than 350 public sector organisations, including NHS Trusts, local authorities, the police, universities and research councils.
