Launch digital services faster and cheaper – keeping up with the latest innovations.
For nearly 15 years, local authorities have had to face and manage the twin challenges of decreased funding while demand for statutory services increases (the services they are legally required to provide).
Croydon Council has chosen Netcall’s low-code platform as instrumental in delivering frontline digital resident services in order to meet their Digital Strategy.
Amid budget cuts and a cost-of-living crisis, driven in part by the inflation rate, many already struggling local councils are finding it difficult to persevere with wider community impacts — like creating jobs, building homes, supporting businesses and investing in new infrastructure. So how do local authorities ensure long-term sustainability and cost savings?
