The Challenge

Blackpool Council faced mounting operational inefficiencies due to an aging finance and HR platform that was no longer fit for modern demands. The outdated system struggled to meet the needs of the 21st century, creating challenges in managing financial and human resources effectively. With pressure to find a long-lasting solution, Blackpool Council required a platform that was not only scalable but also tailored to the unique requirements of local governments. The council needed a modern, cloud-based system that could streamline operations while ensuring compliance with sector-specific regulations.

To address these challenges, ITPro guided Blackpool Council in adopting OneCouncil, a SaaS ERP solution developed by TechnologyOne. With a strong track record in local government, TechnologyOne’s platform offered a tailored approach to addressing the council’s needs. The cloud-based ERP system provided regular software updates, enhancing functionality and ensuring the platform remained future-proof. Designed specifically for local authorities, OneCouncil incorporated specialized features for managing accounting and pension systems unique to the public sector. ITPro’s expertise ensured a smooth implementation, minimizing disruption and empowering Blackpool Council to modernize their operations.

The Benefits

The implementation of OneCouncil transformed Blackpool Council’s finance and HR operations. The cloud platform delivered frequent improvements, outperforming traditional monolithic systems by keeping the software updated and relevant. With TechnologyOne’s deep understanding of local government needs, Blackpool Council gained confidence in their ERP system, avoiding the risks associated with bespoke solutions. The tailored approach streamlined accounting and pension processes, reducing complexity and improving operational efficiency. Thanks to ITPro, Blackpool Council now benefits from a robust, future-ready platform that supports their mission to serve the community more effectively.
