Planning

Planning service
Yes
How the planning service works
We start each project or programme of work by understanding priorities and goals. This helps guide us and sense check work throughout the programme. You will have a dedicated project manager who ensures successful delivery. You'll also have access to delivery managers and business analysts if necessary to strengthen this work. In Discovery and Alpha, we support planning by identifying user needs and technical requirements. This lays a foundation that supports meeting user needs. This makes sure the right things are prioritised, designed and built, which in turn minimises risks and offers value for money. We look towards the future in the early stages to make sure what we deliver is scalable and sustainable. In Beta, we focus on how to release the service or work with minimal risk and continuing to test and iterate. To do this, we consider: * team size and the capacity to gain meaningful insights * how the project will work with other services and across channels * rolling out the work * impact on other teams We also set up success metrics and gather performance data. We plan a smooth transition into Live by prioritising and resourcing continuous improvement activity.

Setup and migration

Setup or migration service available
Yes
How the setup or migration service works
We’re well-versed in supporting public sector clients in migrating services, both between cloud-based solutions or from existing legacy systems. We use the information gathered from user research and technical research to identify the best solution for the new or existing service. We then work with you to create a clear roadmap for migrating your service to the cloud. We are technology agnostic so provide objective recommendations that best suit your requirements and organisational needs. We strive to support you in selecting a sustainable solution and work with you to define requirements for how your service will be managed, supported and incrementally improved as it evolves.

How the quality assurance and performance testing works
As an ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 accredited agency, we have a robust set of processes and frameworks for quality assurance. We conduct all our research within the Market Research Society standards and are General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) compliant. We adopt an Agile methodology and align with the Technology Code of Practice. Our approach incorporates elements of best practice in project management and delivery, including: * continuous integration - code builds and tests * continuous delivery - code release and deployment * monitoring - performance and end-user experience As part of our day-to-day process, we: * run stand-ups to track our work * peer review our code to ensure that it is robust and meets best practice standards * manage our development progress using JIRA issue and project tracking software During the UAT process, you will be able to be actively involved in the prioritisation of changes or bugs. To allow for fast and effective deployment of our work, we use continuous integration and deployment. This allows us to automatically test our code to minimise risk and ensure quality, so your site is robust and stable.

Tackling economic inequality

Nomensa are gold-accredited Investors in People, demonstrating our emphasis on learning and development and ensuring this has impacts beyond our business and into the local community. We continue to work closely with local schools, colleges, universities and other organisations to help build the local digital skills economy for the current and next generation.
Recognising the benefits of a diverse workforce, we’re committed to creating employment opportunities, particularly for those facing barriers to employment. Each year, two interns join us as part of Hargreaves Lansdown’s Strive Internship, which offers paid internships to BAME students.
Organisational growth has enabled us to increase the number of apprenticeship, graduate and internship roles we offer. Since 2013, 52 apprentices, interns and graduates have developed their skills and progressed their careers with us.
We also partner with charity Envision, who work with young people from less advantaged backgrounds to “make change happen whilst building their skills beyond the classroom”. Envision is a UK based charity that empowers young people from less advantaged backgrounds who are underrepresented in the world of work to develop essential skills and confidence through tackling social issues affecting their community.
This year our mentor team won Mentors of the Year across the programme as well as the group of young people winning the overall award for Envision finalists 2023/24.

As part of our commitment to social responsibility and community involvement, we have our Employee Volunteer Day initiative.

Employee Volunteer Day is an opportunity for all employees to take a day off from work to support a charitable cause of their choice. So far, our volunteering hours include:
• Supporting Bristol University outreach to school’s program providing coding and development support to events for school children.
• Volunteering at career days.
• Support on steering groups for Vocscur’s LGBTQ+ partnership

Equal opportunity

We recognise the importance of a diverse workforce and are committed to providing a working environment that is free from discrimination. We promote the principles of equality and diversity across everything we do and work to ensure that our workforce is not only representative of UK population but treated fairly and equally.
As part of our E&D policy, we encourage applications and provide the support for candidates regardless of sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, religion or belief.
We know our work to meet this ambition is never finished and constantly strive towards identifying improvements to our people, processes, supply chains and environment.
We continue to proactively monitor, evaluate and improve our offering, but we currently have in place the following processes:
• Inclusive recruitment training and use of inclusive practices, including blind CVs, utilising alternative recruitment networks that aim to support underrepresented groups (e.g. Technojobs) and providing specialist support throughout the recruitments process, being recognised as a Disability Confident Committed company.
• Early careers paths established using apprenticeship route (Level 3-Level 6) and exploring opportunities for structuring new and existing roles in line with T-level and higher apprentice frameworks. Attracting typically under-represented groups within the sector, our initiatives have already seen 52 Graduates/Apprentices since 2013.
• Intern schemes, including already participating in Hargreaves Lansdown’s Strive Internship, which aims to offer up to 75 paid internships to minority ethnic students, alongside the Envision mentoring scheme, where we provide mentoring to local schools, recently winning mentors of the year 2024 and the group of young people we mentored from Digitech winning the overall event.
• Employee-led working groups and assigned individuals leads, including a equality diversity and inclusion group, who proactively monitor, plan and implement new initiatives, schemes and processes.
