Public sector

It's time for AI-X

The next evolution of customer experience. Customer Experience Excellence Report UK 2024/25

It is a difficult time for public services, post pandemic, raging inflation and an all-time high national debt with citizens demanding ever higher performance from government and public services as they compare public sector performance with that of the private sector.

This has led to an intense focus on public sector productivity. Doing more with less. Aging systems, processes and restrictive procedures and working practices provide a significant barrier. As does a reluctance to embrace new thinking and new ways of doing things.
