Public sector
Digital services for the public sector, delivered properly
We help government departments, local authorities, the NHS and other public bodies design, build and run services that work for everyone who needs them.
Our commitments
What you can expect from us
The standards public services are held to are the standards we build to.
Delivered to the Service Standard
Discovery, alpha, beta and live phases run to the GOV.UK Service Standard, with user research throughout.
Accessible to WCAG 2.2 AA
Services are designed and tested to meet the public sector accessibility regulations from the first sprint.
Secure by design
Threat modelling, least-privilege access and audited infrastructure as code, with UK data hosting available.
Open, with no lock-in
We work in the open and price transparently. You own the code, the data and the documentation.
Agile delivery
Discovery to live, at the pace the service needs
We can take on a single phase or the whole journey, and work alongside your in-house teams throughout.
- 01
Discovery
Understand the problem, the users and the policy intent before deciding what to build.
- 02
Alpha
Prototype and test the riskiest ideas with real users, then choose the approach that works.
- 03
Beta
Build the real service, open it to users and pass the service assessment.
- 04
Live
Run, support and keep improving the service, or hand it over cleanly to your team.
