"We always wanted someone who would care for RED as much as we do, rather than just being a little project on a long list." RED is the Research and Evaluation Database at the Ministry of Justice UK which Pivotl was chosen to build, to improve the way the department and academics track, prioritise and connect research conducted across the Justice System. Our solution, leveraging the Microsoft Power Platform, enables the team to prioritise their research agenda, align resources and answer the most important questions in a robust way. It saves them time and money as we’ve built it in such a way that the team can interrogate, extract and analyse the data without reliance on technical support. If your organisation needs to get information and data sets in order, to help solve your most pressing business challenges, please get in touch to see how we can help.

Delivering AI at scale comes with unique challenges that can hinder adoption and reduce its impact. How can we learn from current experiences to accelerate broader AI deployment? Earlier this month, Pivotl partnered with Alan Brown and the BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT to explore and share experiences with a packed room of delegates. Our panel of experts were Rashik Parmar (Group CEO, BCS), Yvonne Gallagher (Director of Digital, NAO), James Herbert (CEO, Pivotl), and Alan Brown (Professor of Digital Economy, University of Exeter) Here’s a round up of the key takeaways (the full summary is here: https://lnkd.in/e3-CkZN2 ) 🔄 Digital Transformation: Gradual, Not Uniform Not all sectors are advancing at the same pace. While industries like music have seen rapid digital shifts, others are evolving more slowly. Lesson: Tailored, long-term approaches are critical. 💡 The AI Bubble & Scale Challenge Could AI be the next dot-com bubble? High costs of compute resources may limit AI's scalability. Lesson: Even if investment dips, the skills and infrastructure built will have long-lasting value. 💸 Cost Barriers Maintaining large-scale AI models can be prohibitively expensive, even for government agencies. Lesson: High costs are slowing down AI adoption at scale. 🎓 Leadership Gaps in Digital There’s a major digital knowledge gap in leadership. Lesson: Leaders need better digital literacy to navigate AI and tech integration effectively. 🛠️ Technological Disconnect A gap often exists between technical teams and decision-makers, impacting collaboration. Lesson: Modern governance and decision structures are vital for successful digital transformation. 📊 Scale & Innovation Operating at the right scale is key to innovation. Lesson: Organisations need flexible processes to adapt and scale efficiently. 📚 Learning from the Past Even if AI investments falter, like the dot-com era, lasting advances in infrastructure will remain. Lesson: History shows that technological bubbles often leave behind valuable assets for future growth. 🧠 Contextual Decision-Making AI adoption must be aligned with organisational context and risk profile. Lesson: Informed decisions early on, especially around leadership and procurement, determine long-term success. The event highlighted the importance of bridging the digital leadership gap and managing AI's complexities to ensure scalable, context-appropriate transformation. For further insights, check out Professor Alan Brown’s new book, Surviving and Thriving in the Age of AI. https://lnkd.in/eV69Tvrj #AI #DigitalTransformation #Leadership #BCS #AIatScale Richard Grove Jessica Figueras James Hutt Stuart A.

Are you stuck in "legacy system hell”? We’ve had countless conversations with organisations in their modernisation journey about how frustrating it is; costly systems, siloed data, and a fear that upgrading will break everything. If that sounds familiar, firstly you’re not alone and secondly the solution all starts with #data. Through a Data-First approach, organisations can overcome these constraints. Effective data integration connects legacy and modern systems, unlocking the ability to innovate and grow without being held back by outdated tech. It's all about building an architecture that evolves with your business. Sharing a case study of a data architecture we recently developed for a leading university Stuart A. our CTO and data expert shares the challenges, explains why effective data integration is so important and our approach to future proofing the organisation.

Did you know that 60-80% of data sits unused? That’s one of the stats on data sustainability Ishmael Burdeau DWP Digital advised us to add to Stuart A.'s recent blog on ‘Dark Data’. Dark data is stored indefinitely and often needlessly, reducing business efficiency, increasing the chances and seriousness of security issues, detracting from the true value of data, and contributing negatively to environmental issues in ways that might surprise you. Ishmael shared some fascinating insights on the topic at the recent Think Digital Partners Data for Gov event, so we reached out and asked him if there was anything else that was important to share in our blog. Reducing our client’s dark data footprint forms a big part of how we advise organisations as part of their broader data strategy and data management. You can read his contributions in our updated blog here. https://lnkd.in/eR5TDFs6 We'd love to know how your organisation is reducing their 'dark data' footprint? #datasustainability #Greenops #darkdata

The UK public sector is arguably in the best position of any sector anywhere in the world to become a leader in #AI. But the adoption at scale is disappointingly slow given the benefits it can bring. Richard Grove's, our MD of AI, latest blog highlights why building on the sectors' strong digital foundations is where public services can steal a march. He provides three practical steps to approaching and accelerating the use of AI with Services and Users at the heart of it.
