- Aug.20.2020: Coronavirus: Govt defends use of consultancy to lead roll-out of UK's new contact-tracing app. The roll-out of the govt's new contact-tracing app is being led by Accenture, which received £850,000+ for 10 weeks' work. The deals with Accenture were made under so-called "framework agreements", arrangements which allow public sector bodies to buy services or products without going through a full tender application process every time.
