Scottish cloud firm Inoapps has significantly grown its public sector business after securing more than £12 million in new revenue from local authorities and other public bodies throughout the UK.
Aberdeen-headquartered Inoapps, one of the UK’s largest independent Oracle consultancy firms, is appointed to the government’s G-Cloud framework, which allows UK public sector bodies to procure cloud computing services from a preferred supplier.
Following development of its public sector offering, utilising Oracle Best Practice and its specialised implementation methodology, the company has supported a growing list of new clients including the Housing Ombudsman, Office of Rail & Road and the London borough authorities of Newham, Havering and Thurrock.

The increase in work for public bodies is a result of mounting pressure from government to pursue a Cloud First strategy, with a growing number of organisations opting for transformational Oracle Cloud projects implemented by Inoapps and supported by the business’s highly regarded change management services.
Phil Burgess, Inoapps UK managing director, above, said: “As an important strand of our business, we are very pleased to see our presence within the public sector continue to go from strength to strength.
"We have built a superior reputation for customer service and delivery quality and are beginning to see a sharp rise in revenue on the back of significant investment in our team and Change Management practice.
“During this period of economic turbulence, we are delighted to be supporting public sector organisations in making their journey to the cloud where they can further enhance efficiency to deliver service excellence, and ensure resilience for the future.”

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
