When was the last time you touted for this sort of business?
Strictly speaking its ISO 9001 but we do the same as you and call it ISO 9000. You forgot 27001 and 14001.

Iso that everyone is certified but nobody can truly explain or follow, ensuring the money is extracted to the same bunch of bidders.
About 20 years ago, so yes, I might be a little out of date ;)
I've seen it happen time and again with startups, though. They have a great idea, perfect for a large business to use. They get a project manager or department manager excited about it, they even run a PoC successfully. And then they slap headfirst into the Procurement Wall and the whole project grinds to a halt. Three years between project approval and issuing a purchase order. And then 90 days between invoice and payment. Startups go bust waiting for these cogs to turn.
