Exception Accepted onto Crown Commercial Service’s Artificial Intelligence DPS Framework
We’re proud to announce that Exception has been officially accepted onto the Crown Commercial Service’s RM6200 Artificial Intelligence Dynamic Purchasing System (AI DPS) framework - a significant step forward in our mission to help public sector organisations unlock the power of practical, responsible AI.
The CCS RM6200 framework was established to support public sector buyers in sourcing AI services with transparency, accountability, and speed. Acceptance onto this framework recognises Exception’s credibility, capability, and compliance in delivering AI-driven outcomes across government and regulated industries.
Why This Matters
Inclusion on the RM6200 framework enables Exception to offer AI consultancy, development, and deployment services to government departments, agencies, arms-length bodies, local authorities, and more. It opens the door for us to collaborate with a broader range of public sector organisations looking to:
-
Cut operating costs through intelligent automation
-
Unlock new insights from unstructured data
-
Build trusted and transparent AI solutions
-
Accelerate digital maturity in a pragmatic, safe, and ethical way
As one of the UK’s most experienced digital transformation partners in regulated industries, we see this as an opportunity to bring real-world impact to services that matter most - from healthcare and energy to justice and local government.
What We Offer
Exception specialises in low-risk, high-impact adoption of AI, combining deep domain expertise with hands-on technical capability. Through our AI Discovery and Proof of Concept programmes, we help organisations:
-
Identify cost-saving and efficiency opportunities
-
Build internal AI confidence and capability
-
Prototype fast, without overcommitting spend
-
Align transformation projects with ethical and operational guardrails
Our recent work with public bodies has delivered up to 89% time savings across legal, procurement, business analysis, and data tasks, demonstrating just how quickly the public sector can benefit from AI when it's applied thoughtfully.
A Step Towards Smarter Government
Being accepted onto the RM6200 framework is more than just a procurement milestone - it’s a vote of confidence in our approach. We’re excited to collaborate with public sector leaders who are ready to explore how AI can work for them: practically, safely, and with measurable returns.
