“It’s been great to work with CC2i to pilot the use of automated telephony to better engage with our residents who have been issued with community equipment. They took the time to understand how our service works in Camden then used their expertise to develop an effective and efficient approach to deliver the best outcomes for our residents. They were really responsive to our ideas to improve the system further and quick to address any issues that arose once the system was live. It is still early days, but we have already seen good results from the system with the automated calls leading to many items of equipment being returned to our stores and residents being able to easily report problems with their equipment.”

“I have loved working with Jane, Guy and the team at CC2i – they really ‘get’ local government. Our clients drive to improve people’s lives, and how to overcome the challenges we all can face when we try to make that happen. As a commercial partner, they have worked as a part of our team and not only has the partnership been successful, but we have learned a lot from them too!”

“We initially partnered with CC2i on some exploratory proofs of concept for applying our technology platform in adult social care, utilising CC2i’s proven collaboration approach. We found them excellent to work with, very open to ideas, knowledgeable about the sector and the customer base and the challenges posed.”

“CC2i is creating really useful software, in a novel way with local authorities. They take a collaborative approach to solve the problems that we are all aware of and provide the resources to create the solution. Products like Hospital to Home and MAST are game changers for social care, providing solutions for known problems in local authorities. CC2i also helps with your business case for the procurement, and offers excellent advice on navigating GDPR and data sharing agreements.”

“In support of its work to develop radical new models for delivering adult social care, LOTI was pleased to work with CC2i in 2022. The outputs of this work consisted of database of social care innovators and a report outlining how the emerging innovative solutions are supporting the social care sector. The project exceeded our expectations in terms of quality, time and method of delivery. We were particularly impressed by the collaborative nature of the approach taken to design and deliver the survey and resulting analysis as well as the ability of a very small team to deliver this fast-paced work over a holiday period.”

“Well run and organised by CC2i throughout. Excellent communication and keeping to timescales, friendly people and a pleasure to work with. Project brought benefits to the service and streamlined how we deal with our caseload. Highly recommended.”

“Working with other local authorities and industry professionals in early exploration of ideas and direction was a refreshing start to a project. There were clear benefits from the outset, including the much smaller outlay and risk compared with procuring a solution alone.”

“CC2i has been highly effective and excellent at working at pace. They have been flexible and adaptable to the various needs of each of the co-funding councils, and have facilitated collaborative working across all partners to ensure completion and success.”

“The ongoing council adoption and interest in these new products and approaches to innovation are testament to the dynamism and value CC2i bring to the adult social care sector.”

“If you’re looking to reduce cost, de-risk or not sure you have the skills locally to tackle a complex development then I would thoroughly recommend this type of collaborative approach.”

“Working with CC2i was a pleasure, they provided momentum, project support and facilitation throughout. Their understanding of the local authority ecosystem and their network within the same were invaluable.”

“It’s refreshing…The crowdfunding aspect is really new for us and other local authorities and actually is a really innovative way of us moving forward.”

“CC2i brought a network of interested partners, a legal and procurement framework, plus business acumen to collectively ensure the most appropriate, sustainable solution.”

“The experience of working with other LA’s to collaborate, scope and design workable solutions for the public sector has been inspiring. Coming together on shared problems and identifying opportunities has ensured new ideas and perspectives have been achieved.”

“The process was well run and coordinated by staff involved across Maldaba and CC2i. The co-funding process is a great way for Councils to get involved in pieces of work; the financial risk is shared, and we can learn from other LAs about how they work, about their strengths and challenges.”

“Digital technology can make a huge difference to people’s lives and the projects funded through these programmes have improved social care as well as empowered people by giving them more control over their own wellbeing.”

“This is a fantastic digital platform that will transform your D2A pathway from a clunky, fragmented, inefficient, high cost system into a fully functioning…and financially sustainable system.”
