We partner with public bodies to improve service delivery, reduce operational risk, and drive smarter, data-led infrastructure planning across both estates and IT.
Why Local Authorities Need Infrastructure Modernisation
Across local government, critical citizen services, housing systems, benefits platforms, care records, and environmental operations, increasingly depend on ageing digital infrastructure that is no longer fit for purpose.
Many councils run fragmented IT estates spread across civic offices, depots, and repurposed server rooms.
Legacy infrastructure creates operational risk, with poor resilience and unmonitored downtime.
Budget pressure is intensifying, yet underused space and inefficient systems continue to drain resources.
Local digital strategies often lack visibility of physical IT risk, meaning no clear path to reduce footprint, improve uptime, or modernise.
The Key Infrastructure Problems We Solve
Inconsistent IT room standards, legacy server rooms without proper cooling, monitoring, or failover
Cyber and regulatory exposure, poor compliance with NCSC, PSN, or GDPR requirements
Disconnected estates and IT teams, no joined-up approach between digital service teams and those managing buildings
Rising energy costs, no visibility of real IT consumption or capacity, driving waste
No plan to reduce risk or modernise, capital projects ignore digital infrastructure until failure occurs
Relevant Metrics & Public Sector Evidence
~50%
Only ~50% of local authorities have a defined digital infrastructure plan with budget alignment. Source
£26B
The UK public sector spends £26 billion+ annually on digital services, but fragmentation and legacy systems reduce return on investment. Source
30%
Councils report energy efficiency savings of up to 30% from IT room consolidation and cooling upgrades Source
£10k-50k
A single unplanned IT room outage can cost a local authority £10,000–£50,000+ in recovery and lost services Source

What Public Bodies Achieve
We don’t just consult, we embed, align, and deliver. Here’s how we’re different:
Safer, more resilient infrastructure supporting key public services
Reduced spend on underused or inefficient facilities
Improved visibility over capacity, risk, and performance
Strategic plans that link estates, digital, and finance
Stronger funding cases with board-ready business justification
Who We Work With
We work with senior public sector leaders to deliver digital solutions that support strategic goals, improve services, and manage risk. Our work spans digital platforms, estates, infrastructure, and financial planning.
We partner with:
Chief Digital Officers improving public service platforms
We collaborate with Chief Digital Officers to modernise and optimise public service platforms. Our work supports their drive for accessibility, user-centred design, and agile delivery, ensuring digital services meet the needs of citizens and stakeholders while aligning with evolving policy and regulatory frameworks.
Estates Managers planning rationalisation and capital investment
We support Estates Managers as they navigate asset rationalisation and investment planning. Our digital tools and spatial data services enable evidence-based decision-making, helping them prioritise resources, maximise efficiency, and build a future-ready estate portfolio.
ICT Leads managing infrastructure, compliance, and performance
We work with ICT Leads to streamline infrastructure, reinforce compliance, and enhance system performance. Whether it's integrating legacy systems or implementing cloud-first strategies, we enable ICT teams to deliver secure, scalable, and reliable digital environments.
CFOs and Strategy Directors aligning digital goals with budgets and risks
