Wow! Nearly the end of July and “School’s Out for Summer!”

In this month we have achieved our first milestone at the Financial Conduct Authority in our Digital Maturity Partner engagement that we talked about securing last month. This is a great example of on time, high quality delivery by our team and making an impact almost immediately after beginning the work.

Our reputation grows and grows! Similarly, last month I talked about starting our first Discovery work packages at the UK Health Security Agency – these are now well under way and whilst we are discovering challenges in the way the client needs to operate, we are making good headway.

Using the experience of winning and delivering this work, we have already started to bid for other Design and Discovery work at other organisations both in government and in the private sector so expect us to get involved in more shaping work and the roles and skills that go with that.

We’ve now submitted our re-bid to the UKHSA as our contract is coming to an end in September and the client has gone out to competitive tender for their client-side partner going forwards.

At NHS England, our Screening team came to do a Show and Tell on the work we are doing across the transformation programme team, the cervical screening system team, and the live service engagement at the Town Hall. It’s clear that there, as well as everywhere else, we are delivering excellence every day in a most challenging environment that will lead to an outcome of huge impact for society.

We still awaiting answers on several bids that have gone into organisations such as the FCA, NHS, Department of Health, Greater Manchester Combined Authority and Crown Commercial Services.

In other sectors, we are advancing nicely in the conversations with Sky, BNP Paribas, Northern PowerGrid, Welsh Water and most recently Asda.

Most of these are now at formal proposal stage, and we’re working with our contacts at these potential clients to get to the proposal that they need.

These are quite broad, covering Service Design, Enterprise Architecture, Delivery and Product Management so expect some opportunities for exciting work in exciting new clients!

We’ve had many new starters this month as you’ll have hopefully seen at the Town Hall. Every one of those new starters is important to the growth of our business.

I’d like to draw your attention specifically to Dave Sugden joining us this month. Dave has joined to build out our engineering practice. Engineering, to us, means our services to clients around concepts such as pipeline automation, SRE, Observability amongst others.

It’s absolutely essential to our Fast Flow thinking to have these concepts covered and we often find ourselves deploying people into engineering roles with our clients, so this formalises that now as a practice and service offering from Axiologik.

We've also been hard at work in the background to build our employer brand. Read all about our newest accredition here
