From inception Pivotl was designed to support important public sector institutions and their partners in using modern data tools, technologies, and approaches to:

• Improve public services.
• Enable economic growth.
• Make better decisions, and
• Increase inclusion of the most vulnerable in society.

We believe that a combination of smart strategy, modern delivery methods and world class data platforms can make a huge contribution to public service reform and the UK economy more broadly. This is why as a UK SME we are relentlessly focused on our brief. Data and public services were not practices or teams tacked onto an already existing digital transformation business – they sit at the heart of our culture, thinking, technology and ways of working.

Specialist in Microsoft Azure Data and AI services as well as Databricks, our multi-disciplinary teams are made up of world class design, engineering, data science and product management talent.  They are defined by their functional expertise as well as their passion for what data can do for public service outcomes. User needs, security, compliance, and operational performance form the foundations of our data solutions. Our ways of working are pragmatically aligned with Government Service Standards, the Technology Code of Practice and all appropriate cyber requirements.

We’re proud of our work. Amongst other successes we have:

• Used data and machine learning to automate gas and safety certificate checking for major housing associations.
• Used data and modern technology to help UK regulators and consumers assess pension risk and reduce fraud.
• Used data to allow NHS Trusts to model, match and forecast clinical demand with workforce supply.
• Used data to allow energy companies to identify and predict gas pipeline issues and improve field engineer safety.
• Designed and built data infrastructure, tools and standards which allowing government departments to share data more easily and securely.
• Used data to create recommendation systems, higher streaming quality, optimization of production costs and expansion to global audiences for a public service broadcaster.

To truly exploit data and associated technologies, organisations need a data native partner; focussed and specialist but able to link outcomes clearly to business goals and wider context. Pivotl is that partner.
