The problem is that Companies have to be on a preferred supplier list and meet various criteria before they get near to any sort of Government contract.

Many years ago I worked for a large Canadian consultancy in the UK that was excluded from bidding on government contracts as it had not become a preferred supplier. They had to use another consultancy and be sub-contracted to do work on a local government portal.
