This is an interesting top 100 list. It is the top 100 suppliers to the Department for Work and Pensions in 2009/2010 in terms of the amount of money spent with them.

HP tops the list for IT suppliers and is actually the second most paid supplier of all. This is ironic because HP has recently been contributing to the DWP’s workload with thousands of UK job cuts.

Here is an article on Kable.co.uk about this.

As the spending review creeps closer it is interesting to see how much is spent by the DWP with IT suppliers. You can see why HP was keen for its staff at the DWP to stop striking.

But here are some of the IT suppliers in the top 100, where they were ranked, and how much they were paid.

Company DWP revenue

2 – HP Enterprise Services £657m

4 – BT £233m

7 – Atos Origin £151m

9 – Accenture £87m

11 – Capita £69m

14 – Xerox UK £61m

15 – Computacenter £53m

33 – Fujitsu Services £16m

40 – Capgemini £13.5m

41 – TCS £13m

47 – Steria £11m

51 – IBM £10m

I look forward to seeing how different this list looks after the MOUs are signed by suppliers and the government spending review hits home.

David Cameron described some of the Labour government’s spending, including IT, as crazy.
