About Getting Digital Right

What we do and why we do it

At Getting Digital Right, our mission is deeply rooted in the belief that digital transformation should be accessible, understandable, and actionable for everyone in the public sector.

In an era where technology evolves at an unprecedented pace, the necessity to demystify and declutter the digital landscape has never been more critical. Our core ethos centers on simplification—not just as a concept, but as a practical approach to digital innovation. We strive to empower public sector organisations by breaking down complex digital challenges into manageable, straightforward solutions.

This approach enables us to educate and inspire, providing the tools and insights necessary to deliver superior digital services efficiently and cost-effectively.

Simplification is more than just a goal; it's our way of ensuring that the public sector can harness the full potential of digital advancements to enhance the lives of the communities they serve.

Why We Do It

At the heart of GDR is a passion for transformative impact, born from my extensive experience in the public sector and a deep understanding of digital's potential and pitfalls. My journey has shown me the limitations of traditional consulting models - too often, they are too removed from the practical realities and unique challenges faced by public sector organisations.

It's this insight that drives us to do what we do:

  • When a public sector entity shifts from outdated systems to streamlined, digital processes, the impact on service delivery is profound.

  • When digital initiatives move from cost centers to generating real value and efficiency, it’s transformative.

  • When we help organisations transition from struggling with digital adoption to becoming leaders in digital innovation, it’s transformative.

  • When we unlock the potential for digital to facilitate better public services, rather than hinder them, it’s transformative.

  • When we enable public sector leaders to not just envision but actually implement digital strategies that work, it’s transformative.

  • When our work leads to better public services, making a real difference in the lives of citizens, it’s transformative.

  • When the knowledge and strategies we provide help public sector organisations to achieve more with less, enabling better investment in community and services, it’s transformative.

These are the outcomes we strive for at GDR. It’s about making a tangible, positive difference in how the public sector operates and serves the community, leveraging my history in the sector and a keen understanding of digital’s challenges and opportunities. This is why we do what we do, and it’s why every project, every piece of advice, and every strategy we deliver is aimed at creating lasting, meaningful change.
