Customer Story: Southampton City Council
The Challenge
Southampton City Council is the unitary authority for Southampton on the South coast of England, comprising approximately 254,000 residents. The adoption of modern digital services would go far in streamlining service delivery, enhancing the citizen experience, and maximizing efficiency.
With digitization comes data. Lots of it. The council operates more than 400 services. Citizens regularly cross between them, from housing, to leisure, to social, to other services. Until recently, much of the data underpinning these services was locked in separate, fragmented silos, undermining the opportunity to deliver joined-up, value-based service.
