Scott Logic has been helping government organisations achieve their technology objectives for many years. Data – and how to safely capture and share it – is a complex challenge in the public sector, and it is a challenge that our experts have strong opinions about.
Unstructured data is restricting many government organisations from being able to make data-driven decisions and efficiencies.
Principal Consultant and ex-GDS Programme Director, Jess McEvoy, explains how to unlock its value.
The pandemic required the public sector to urgently prioritise data flows across departments.
When COVID-19 took hold in the UK, NHS Digital moved rapidly to identify the most clinically vulnerable people in society so that they could be supported to shield themselves. Scott Logic was called upon to provide support in laying the foundations of this critically important new service.
In 2022, we worked in partnership with the Institute for Government (IfG) on a series of roundtables discussing how data sharing supported or impeded the government's response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and what lessons should be learnt for the future.
In recent years, many new tools and techniques have been developed. We’ve been at the forefront of these, helping our clients see past the hype to find pragmatic solutions that help civil servants turn apparent constraints into enablers.
In this webinar, Companies House Chief Data Officer and then DWP Deputy Director, Charlie Boundy, spoke with Scott Logic’s Andrew Carr about Data Mesh and how government departments could use it.
In our role as technology partner to HM Land Registry, we helped them with a data transformation project to create a modern geospatial Land Register.
Data that is structured, meaningful, and usable supports safe innovation, enabling departments to make informed decisions, modernise legacy systems, and deliver better services without compromising continuity or compliance.
How we supported the DWP to move forward with a prototype Machine Learning model that would flag priority cases for safeguarding interventions, moving it into production, and speeding up response rates.
Data is intrinsically important to every element of the safe and successful harnessing of AI. In this blog, Graham Odds explains how the public sector can overcome the common challenges across the data lifecycle in the industry to truly harness the potential of AI.
If you’d like to discuss how our data specialists can support you in achieving your objectives, we’re always happy to chat.
Data-literate leadership underpinned the most successful pandemic-response programmes. In this post, I explore what data-literate leadership looks like, drawing on examples from the roundtables on data sharing in government that the Institute for Government ran in partnership with Scott Logic.

In this episode, Oliver Cronk dives into the world of Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) with Tom Fairbairn from Solace and Scott Logic’s Gordon Campbell. The discussion explores whether EDA has matured beyond the hype into a practical strategy for modern systems integration, or if it’s just another architectural buzzword.
