Turning Public Sector Intelligence into Marketing Advantage
For Chief Marketing Officers, the challenge isn’t only reaching the public sector — it’s understanding it.
For Chief Marketing Officers, the challenge isn’t only reaching the public sector — it’s understanding it.
Across categories and authorities, public sector demand shifts constantly as contracts renew, budgets reallocate, and spend trajectories evolve. Without visibility of where spending is increasing or which services are gaining traction, marketing teams struggle to position the organisation effectively or align campaigns with real opportunity.
That’s where Be Connected gives CMOs the visibility to lead with confidence.
By mapping contract renewals, incumbent suppliers, and spend activity across the public sector, Be Connected enables marketing leaders to target smarter, plan campaigns with precision, and elevate their brand’s visibility within the markets that matter most.

Live Example:
Targeting with Spend Trajectory Data
A CMO for a national IT services company used Be Connected’s Cloud and Data Centre datasets to analyse spend trajectories across 200 public sector organisations.
The data showed a significant rise in renewal activity within higher education, driven by digital infrastructure upgrades.
By repositioning campaign content and targeting universities approaching renewal, the marketing team achieved a 42% increase in engagement and generated qualified leads that converted into £1.1 million in new contracts.
Be Connected turned intelligence into timing — enabling marketing strategy to meet opportunity at the perfect moment.

Hear What Our Customers Have to Say
Sarah Duffield
We used Be Connected to spot over 200 public sector energy contracts with high annual usage. The Advanced Search tool helped us target only the most commercially viable authorities. Combined with the support we received from the Be Connected team, we turned complex contract data into a real, practical sales strategy.
Emily Donoghue
The Be Connected platform made our outreach far more intelligent. We now prioritise based on contract expiry, not guesswork. Emily’s team focused on NHS Trusts and mid-size councils with over £100k in annual WAN spend. With the help of the Be Connected support team, we even built custom search logic that perfectly fit our campaign goals.
Tony Clarke
Tony used Advanced Search to quickly build a picture of where cyber contracts were either fragmented or extended too often. That gap in market discipline became our opportunity. “It gave us exactly what we needed to drive meaningful engagement.
Deborah Stallabrass
We didn't need a mountain of data — just the right slice. With Advanced Search, we zoomed in on authorities still running legacy WAN infrastructure and timed our approach around contract renewals. The Be Connected team were always on hand to adjust filters or send us ideas we hadn’t thought of.
Carmen Bury
A quick search for ‘telephony maintenance’ and some filters on region and renewal dates gave us a surprising number of live contracts with no clear replacement strategy. We jumped on it. Great tool, and the human support behind it is a big reason we’ve stuck with it.
Jon Sumner
Jon’s team used Advanced Search to map cloud migration patterns for ERP platforms. Instead of waiting for frameworks, they took a proactive approach — driven by Be Connected data on older, high-spend ERP systems that hadn’t moved to the cloud. It led to early conversations with several local authorities preparing to go to market.
Adam Goldthorpe
Be Connected gave us a shortlist of every authority with a WAN contract set to expire in the next 18 months. It was like having a dedicated research analyst plugged into our sales ops.
Katie Adebayo
Katie’s public sector team needed visibility on fragmented contact centre contracts — fast. Using Advanced Search, they filtered by contract extension history and spend level. What they found shaped their entire campaign, and they praised the Be Connected team for their “prompt support and useful context around market dynamics
