How the planning service works
We help organisations plan and deliver their transformation, enabled by digital.

We can help you bring together stakeholders from inside and outside your organisation to articulate a clear sense of purpose that is appropriate for the internet age. Working with you to establish the landscape in which you are operating, we can help you to be clear on your priorities, communicate with others, and anticipate change. We can then help you select and apply approaches which are best for different parts of your organisation, for example, agile build in-house, buy off-the-shelf cloud products, outsource, and so on. We can support your planning to tackle the right work in the right order.

With our cyber-security expertise we can help you design services which meet your users' needs, and which also help keep your organisation safe in a world of ever-evolving threats.

We understand that people, as well as technology, are critical to any digital transformation journey, and can support communications and engagement across your organisation.

We are experts in the Government Digital Service (GDS) and Infrastructure & Projects Authority (IPA) "7 Lenses of Transformation" framework and have helped multiple organisations apply it to improve their confidence in successfully delivering their transformation.
