Transforming business services and optimising digital provision

Objective

Welsh Water wanted to give their customers the power to self-serve whilst improving operational efficiency by leveraging innovative technologies.

Approach

We’ve removed inherited technical debt and embedded innovation into their 3,000-strong company culture to deliver a state-of-the-art digital customer experience which promotes Welsh Water’s sustainable initiatives.

Self-Service for millions

Welsh Water is now able to deliver optimised digital services including online forms, an automated ‘submit meter reading’ feature and a portal allowing customers’ access to multiple services through a single login. With improved online payments and webform submissions and a significant decrease in billing calls, the future roadmap is driven both by an ongoing programme of service enhancements and supporting the critical work of the water efficiency team.   

“ Without your skills and capabilities our website wouldn’t look as amazing as it does today. It’s a pleasure working with you all and I hope you are as proud of the website as I am. ”
