Local Government
Don’t reinvent digital wheels. Build better, cheaper services using open-source technology. We’re here to help.
How we can help
- Strategic discovery Laying the foundations for councils embarking on a new phase of their digital transformation to help you meet the objectives you signed up to in the Local Digital Declaration.
- Discovery and alpha squads A ready-to-go squad that can help you understand the problem in depth and build a prototype that meets the core needs of your users.
- Housing repairs We’ve built an open source product to help citizens reporting their housing repair needs. We can help you implement it quickly and affordably.
- Capability health check A review of the skills available in your organisation, and recommendations for building them. Cloud, data, cyber security, user-centred design, digital platforms… we’ve got you covered.
- Agile coaching Helping councils use ways of working that deliver value to citizens fast and effectively so they can identify the right products and services to build.

Housing
One of the government’s most essential responsibilities is providing housing to those that need it. We’re proud to support local authorities in providing housing services in a number of ways, including an open-source product to make it quick and easy for residents to report housing repair needs.

We’ve made a new SaaS product for residents to report housing repairs
We’ve built a new SaaS (software as a service) product that lets residents report their housing repair needs to their local authority. It takes about 5 minutes for a resident to use. We’ve built this to help local authorities all over the UK improve the housing repairs services they provide to their residents, while saving time and money at the same time.
