SVGC 25 years

This year has been a big milestone for all of us at SVGC as we celebrate our 25th year of business.

On the 23rd May 1997 SVGC was declared an official private limited company by The Registrar of Companies for England and Wales and we’re thrilled to have reached such a milestone serving the public sector for 25 years.

Our history

Originally founded by four ex-military personnel, the name SVGC came from their initials (Suzyanna, Victoria, Gerry and Chris). Having worked within defence, as recognised public sector procurement experts set up to provide support to the Ministry of Defence and associated industry, it quickly became apparent that the services SVGC were offering could also benefit the public sector as a whole and a need for high-quality, rapid and cost-effective solutions that enable the public sector to make great decisions.

Over the years our unique and blended team of business, security and digital experts has grown bringing transformative change to manage capability and complex programme outcomes. Decisions enabled by SVGC stand up to scrutiny; are based on best practice and are intelligently tailored to individual needs. As a result, SVGC’s services are now increasingly in demand from government departments, commercial organisations and the nuclear sector with clients now well beyond the MOD including FCDO, HM Treasury, BEIS and the Home Office.

We are proud to deliver market-leading expertise that provide insights to leaders and teams across Government departments through; strategic and enterprise planning, complex acquisition, operational effectiveness, digital transition and transformation, solution architecture and data science.

Celebrating this achievement, Managing Director Dr Andrew Dixon said:

“At SVGC, we have always respected the founding principles of the company, delivering value-for-money quality solutions and services into the public-sector. I am proud to have led the company over the last 10 years to this important milestone and believe that there has never been a more significant time to deliver high-integrity assured and accredited independent client-side services into the public sector”

To mark the occasion the SVGC team gathered at a Golf Hotel and Spa for a three-course meal, drinks and added entertainment of a Murder Mystery. We will also be celebrating with stakeholders and collaborative partners with a drink’s reception in September.

We’d like to say a huge thank you to our extremely valued team of experts, stakeholders and collaborative partners, without whom, none of the results we’ve achieved or business success would be possible. Here’s to another 25 years of business!

If you have any memories to share of working with SVGC we’d love to hear them, get in touch!
