Disrupting Defence Procurement—With Pace, Precision, and People

Posted July 24, 2025

The 2025 Strategic Defence Review has made one thing clear: Procurement must evolve, FAST.

With the UK Defence sector shifting to warfighting readiness, the government is calling for radical procurement reform, a whole-of-society approach, and a new partnership with industry. The message? Speed, agility, and innovation are no longer optional, they’re mission critical.

At Sanderson Government & Defence, we’re already there.

We’re not just a supplier; we’re a disruptive force.

We reverse-engineer challenges, deploy consultancy teams at pace, and bring commercial sharpness to every engagement. Whether it’s scaling capability, navigating the new Procurement Act, or embedding agile teams, we deliver results, not red tape.

With £400 million allocated to the Defence Innovation Fund and a clear mandate to back UK businesses, now is the time to act. Let’s get the right people in place, on the ground, in the fight, and ahead of the curve.

In previous times slow moving, safety first, bureaucratic procurement was fit for purpose and supported government policy.  The world has changed.  Policy has changed. The safety-first old ways of doing it are no longer fit for purpose.  We need to focus on the outcomes – what suppliers can do for you and how innovatively – not how long have they been doing the same thing for.

Innovation means new approaches from new people.

Let’s make procurement a strategic advantage.
