Driving the public sector forward with data-driven solutions 

Public sector organisations are commonly faced with tight timelines, limited resources and finite budgets. This, coupled with working with complex legacy systems can slow progress and stall digital transformation.

Our data and software development experts can create tailor-made solutions to seamlessly align with your existing systems whenever unique challenges emerge.

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) has the capacity to significantly enhance public sector operations and revolutionise citizen services. Our AI and ML services aim to demystify the deployment of these emerging solutions, enabling public sector clients to harness their potential. Leveraging our team's extensive expertise, we excel in security management, data assessment, and customising models to meet specific client demands.

Custom software development for the public sector

The Virtual Forge provides software development services to help public sector institutions unveil the true power of data. With our vast expertise, we can assist you in imagining, designing, building, and seamlessly incorporating industry-compliant web and mobile software solutions.

Data consultancy

Data stands as a cornerstone resource within every public sector institution. As in all cases, if it’s treated properly, it can improve operational decision-making. Alternatively, it often creates misinformation and business risk. Our scalable advanced data consulting services are designed to turn raw insights into better decision-making and planning, through governance, strategy, quality, AI and ML and data visualisation.

Devops

Public institutions are increasingly recognising the significance of a well-implemented DevOps strategy, spanning from compliance regulations to centralisation and task management requirements. This growing awareness underscores its importance in their operations.

Cloud Services

Moving to the cloud, or optimising the use of the cloud, can bring enormous benefits to any public sector organisation. Our seasoned cloud consultants can guide you through the maze of cloud applications, services, and architectures, advising on the ones that are most likely to yield optimal results, considering factors such as cost, deadlines, and resource availability.

Learning management systems

A Learning Management System (LMS) is invaluable for public sector organisations, cutting costs and time across L&D efforts. It ensures compliance, streamlines tracking, eliminates manual spreadsheets, and scales effortlessly for any user volume. Our team excels in crafting tailor-made solutions to enhance training and development in government and public institutions.
