Digital strategy
Making change happen
What is digital strategy?
A digital strategy helps identify the changes that need to happen, organisationally and culturally, to transform your organisation into a modern, user-centred, cloud-based organisation fit for the digital age.
Methods’ experts will work with you to create a digital strategy, including setting out the next steps and a long-term roadmap for making that change happen.
Our approach
Methods’ digital strategy approach uses a range of techniques and methodologies to support you in moving to a cloud-based, user-centred organisation that’s flexible and responsive to whatever unexpected changes lie ahead.
We work in partnership with you to look at your aspirations and goals from different perspectives – design, data, ethics, finance, and the environment – to understand your current situation and the organisational change you want to achieve. We then draw upon our experience of working with organisations across the public sector to put actionable steps in place to help it become reality. These might include changes to processes, technology, communication, organisation structure, project finance, contracts and more.

How our expertise can help
Thought Leadership
Mark Thompson, co-founder of Methods, is a pioneer in digital government, and the co-author of “Digitizing Government” and “Manifesto for Better Public Services“. Mark also provides digital training for Permanent Secretaries and Director Generals.
This thought leadership is embedded in our delivery across the full Government landscape, from local authorities, ministerial and non-ministerial departments, devolved government to other public bodies.
Vision and roadmaps
Organisations are living breathing things, they have heads, hearts and moving parts – to stand any chance of moving in the right direction there needs to be some coordination. We use a range of strategic planning techniques to help give organisations a sense of purpose, which in turn will help them to move in the right direction, increasing the chance of overall success.
Mapping (structure, capability and business models)
Our expert team uses strategic modelling tools, such as Wardley mapping, to give true situational awareness and identify where opportunities might lie.
We can help your organisation become more efficient and responsive to an ever-changing and competitive environment.
