WBC Executive Member for Digital & Environmental Services: The Councils have made great strides towards digital independence and whilst there will remain a place for SaaS and other externally supplied systems, the in-house low-code platform approach provides a scalable and locally configurable system that allows us to build and manage systems without such heavy reliance on external partners.
