— What's broken

Sound familiar?

Citizens give up before completing forms

Half-finished applications drown the call center. Drop-off rates over 60%. The 'digital service' is anything but.

Status updates require a phone call

There's no way to check 'where is my application'. Citizens phone in. Officers spend half their day on status updates.

Legacy systems are unaccessible

Screen readers don't work. Mobile is broken. Older browsers crash. The Equality Act exposure is real and growing.

Notifications are letters in the post

Decisions arrive 10 days late. Appeals miss deadlines. Trust collapses. The cost of paper is the smallest line item.

— What we ship

Production systems, not slideware.

Citizen portals

Modern, accessible, mobile-first portals that citizens actually finish using. Auth, profile, document upload, the works.

Application tracking

Real-time status, document checklists, deadline reminders. Citizens see exactly where they are. Inbound calls drop.

Notification systems

Email, SMS, push, in-portal — multi-channel notifications with audit trail and consent management.

WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility

Built to standard from day one — not retrofitted. Screen reader tested, keyboard navigable, real users in QA.

Security & compliance

GDPR by design. UK data residency. ISO 27001 control alignment. Audit trails on every action.

Internal officer tooling

Caseworker dashboards, queue management, reporting. The other half of the equation that vendors usually skip.

— Use cases

Where this moves the metric.

01

Permit & licence applications

Modern flows for parking, planning, business licences. Citizens submit on a phone. Officers review in a queue.

02

Service request portals

Bin collections, road defects, environmental services — reported in 30 seconds with photo evidence.

03

Council tax & payment portals

Unified payment, balance, instalment management. Reduces inbound finance calls dramatically.

04

Citizen consultation platforms

Run public consultations with proper participation, comment, and reporting tooling.

−65%
— Case study

Application drop-off cut by two-thirds

A council application portal had a 62% drop-off rate. We rebuilt the flow mobile-first, broke a 12-step form into 4 logical sections, added save-and-resume, and shipped real-time status tracking. Drop-off fell to 22%, inbound status calls dropped 70%, accessibility audit cleared at AA.
