Government Functional Standard, GovS 008: Commercial, Version: 2.0, published by HM Government in September 2021, defines commercial as a: ‘Commonly used term in central government to describe broad procurement and commissioning activities.’ It defines a commercial system as: ‘A technology system designed and used specifically for commercial use.’

And that commercial specialists are: 'Staff, of any rank, with particular expertise in the undertaking of specialist commercial activities...'
