Bespin Global said it received a citation from the Minister of Economy and Finance at the ceremony marking the 6th Public Procurement Day, held on the 30th of last month at the Daejeon Convention Center. The award recognized the company's achievements in public-sector AI transformation (AX) projects. Public Procurement Day is a legal observance commemorating September 30, 2002, the date the National e-Procurement System, KONEPS, was launched, and it aims to honor contributors to the development of public procurement.
Bespin Global said it posted contract volume of KRW 12.3 billion in the AI sector of the Public Procurement Service's Digital Specialized Services over the past 3 years. The company also said it has participated in public generative AI projects since 2024.
Bespin Global said its track record includes a total of 17 digital specialized service contracts, including Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power's AI-based work support service, 'HiNuri,' and projects for the Korea Forest Service. Based on this, the company's business scope has expanded to central government ministries, local governments, education offices and public institutions.
Representative examples include the Korea Agro-Fisheries & Food Trade Corporation's 'KATI Export Information AI Service Enhancement,' the Seoul Tourism Organization's 'Visit Seoul,' the Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education's 'Our Child AI,' and the Government Employees Pension Service's 'AI-based Customer Counseling.'
Bespin Global is using its self-developed 'HelpNow Agentic AI Platform' to expand public AI projects. The platform received a Grade 1 GS(Good Software) certification, overseen by the Telecommunications Technology Association (TTA), last August. GS certification is a software quality certification system.
The GS certification evaluation items are functional suitability, performance efficiency, usability, reliability and security. Grade 1 GS-certified products can be used for preferential procurement by public institutions, registration on KONEPS, and exemption from benchmark testing (BMT) for informatization projects.
Bespin Global said it was registered as a 'cloud-converged service' after review under the digital service specialized contract system. Based on that registration, the company is expanding the foundation for public institutions to introduce conversational AI services through procurement.
The company plans to expand public AI projects using the KONEPS integrated shopping mall registration, digital specialized services contracts and multiple-award schedule contracts (MAS) in the wake of this award. It also plans to expand AI agent templates that can be applied in administration, welfare and safety, and to promote platform optimization tailored to the public cloud (G-Cloud) environment.
Bespin Global Korea CEO Huh Yang-ho said the citation reflects recognition of the company's technology and execution capabilities in the public AI market. He also said the company would support public institutions in expanding AI adoption and services based on the 'HelpNow Agentic AI Platform.'
