Description

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, BEIS, along with other government departments are being tasked with responding to the evolving needs of citizens, the community and businesses. Developing vaccines and antibody tests to the disease is an increasingly challenging example of urgent cross-Government issues where key elements, including assurance, have been actively managed by the BEIS Commercial team. The work requires significant levels of commercial assurance support from the BEIS Commercial team. Without timely responses, the VTF programme will struggle to deliver its outcomes.
