Unlock the Power of Data in Local Regional Councils
Building connected, data-driven councils for a stronger future.
When councils have legacy data, grow or are part of a new unitary, success depends on more than aligning people and systems, it starts with getting data right. Across the UK, local authorities are consolidating to increase efficiency, reduce costs, and deliver better public services. But without a clear strategy for managing and integrating information, even the best-intentioned reforms can stall.
At AvePoint, we help councils turn data consolidation from challenge to advantage. Our trusted cloud and data governance solutions ensure your information remains secure, compliant, and accessible, so you can focus on delivering value to your communities.
Why Data Matters in Councils
Unify information with confidence – Combine legacy + cloud systems and teams without losing critical information or context.
Safeguard sensitive data – Maintain compliance with UK data protection standards throughout the transition.
Empower every department – Ensure seamless access across the council estate to improve collaboration and public service delivery.
Reduce risk and cost – Identify data redundancies, streamline systems, and make informed decisions with a single source of truth.
Assess, Protect, and Secure Data for Confident Migration
Identify sensitive and ROT (redundant, obsolete, trivial) data early to reduce risk, cost, and complexity. Back up critical information before migration to safeguard business continuity and enable recovery if issues arise. Gain visibility to classify, secure, and govern data, ensuring compliant, defensible, and efficient data migration.
Accelerate Integration
Plan and scope migrations effectively by identifying high‑value assets and predicting timelines. Migrate data and identities securely across platforms to accelerate collaboration and preserve knowledge. Enable continuous optimisation with flexible restructuring and delegated administration, maintaining centralised security, audit, and compliance control as integrations evolve.
Data Security Remediation
Quickly identify, prioritise, and resolve permission risks, misconfigurations, and exposure across your cloud environment. Automate remediation workflows and enforce least‑privilege access, helping organisations close security gaps, meet compliance standards, and maintain a continuously secure data posture.
Empower Secure, Governed Collaboration
Strengthen governance with automated controls and safe data‑sharing practices to uphold compliance and public trust. Embed shared accountability and implement self-service for seamless, secure internal and external collaboration.
