IT Transformation

Newry, Mourne and Down District Council

We supported Newry, Mourne and Down District Council in delivering a comprehensive
IT transformation programme to modernise infrastructure, improve service delivery, and enable digital innovation.

The Challenge

Following the merger of three legacy councils, Newry, Mourne and Down District Council faced the complex task of unifying and modernising its IT infrastructure. The goal was to streamline operations, remove duplication and build a resilient digital foundation to support efficient service delivery and rising expectations from both residents and staff.

To achieve this, the Council needed strategic expertise to shape a clear IT transformation roadmap and deliver impactful digital change.

Our Approach

We worked closely with the Council’s leadership and IT teams to understand organisational priorities and evaluate the existing technology landscape. We developed a tailored IT transformation strategy and delivery plan, focused on:

  • Retiring outdated systems
  • Enhancing infrastructure resilience
  • Replacing critical line-of-business applications
  • Enabling digital service delivery

To deliver the transformation, we designed and established a comprehensive programme. We engaged service teams across the organisation, produced detailed technical specifications, designed and managed multiple procurements, and delivered the business change necessary to realise long-term benefits.

We led the programme and project delivery on behalf of the Council, ensuring robust governance, and public sector best practice and compliance throughout.

The Impact

The programme successfully delivered measurable improvements in system performance, user satisfaction and operational efficiency. The Council is now equipped with a modern, integrated IT environment that supports digital innovation, responsive service delivery, and ongoing organisational development.

With our guidance, Newry, Mourne and Down District Council has established a future ready digital foundation, empowering its teams and communities for the years ahead.
