Four reusable tender clauses help councils test whether suppliers support shared development, transparent roadmaps, customer influence, open standards, and reusable platforms. Craig Barker developed the wording shared by Will Callaghan.

Werkzaak Rivierenland is tendering for a successor to its current Drupal website, but Drupal remains eligible. The new platform must use a mature open-source CMS, reduce custom complexity, and remain transferable between suppliers.

NHS executive lobbied data watchdog to rewrite criticism before Palantir deal www.ft.com/content/63bf... (£)

Published version of Nicola Byrne's post in August 2023 www.gov.uk/government/n...

Byrne's term as National Data Guardian ends in March

#FOI #NHSdata #patientdata #datasharing #govtech

Emails from August 2023 obtained by the FT through a freedom of information request show Byrne delayed publishing the statement about the FDP after Ming Tang, NHS England's then chief data officer, warned it would "create significant problems" for her.

Tang raised concerns about what she argued was "inflammatory" language and a lack of balance in the statement after Byrne shared an advance copy.

Hoi, ik heb een #praatplaat Ben benieuwd naar jullie input/mening. #civictech #publictech #govtech

vier kwadranten: markt, overheid, maatschappelijke organisaties, burgercollectieven

markt maakt govtech: overheidsbehoefte, private investering, verantwoording aandeelhouders
overheid maakt publictech: maatschappelijke behoefte, publieke middelen, democratische verantwoording
maatschappelijke organisaties maken civictech (1): maatschappijvisie, donaties, verantwoording aan doelstelling
burgercollectieven maken civictech (2): gemeenschapsbehoefte, bijdragen deelnemers, verantwoording aan elkaar

Moving Share Homes for Ukraine data's code to open source mhclgdigital.blog.gov.uk/2026/09/18/m...

Shiny new GitHub repo github.com/communitiesu...

This is the system that MHCLG built in-house instead of paying £10 million to continue using Palantir's Foundry software

Working in the open can be daunting! All your mistakes would be there for the world to see in a public code repository, with nowhere to hide... However, open source code is part of how we build software in the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) and a key part of the government Service Manual for digital services ("make source code open and reusable"). Sharing our code means that other government departments and people in outside organisations can benefit from our work, saving time and money.

EU procurement reform could make open source more explicit in public-sector buying and strengthen licensing provisions against technology lock-in. The proposal is not yet law.

1/ If you've ever verified your identity on login.gov (IRS, Social Security, VA), here's something I found this week.

The government's signed privacy report says login.gov doesn't keep the photo of your license or your face. The public code keeps both. 🧵
