How We Improve Public Service Delivery

CareCubed is a secure online care costing tool that supports open and transparent negotiation of cost of care placements. Built on over a decade of experience, the tool uses an evidence-based approach to give a clear baseline for care costs.
The Cyber Centre of Excellence (CCOE) is an initiative aimed at all local authorities and UK public bodies to help them stay abreast of cyber threats and give them access to military-grade protection at high street prices.

IESE – Built By The Sector For The Sector

We are a member-led organisation that is owned by councils. IESE was born from a vision to transform public services for the better. As a community interest company, we work alongside public sector organisations to create lasting positive change where it matters most – in everyday life. By combining our experience with a collaborative approach, we help local services grow stronger in a sustainable way. Our purpose is to empower teams to deliver solutions that truly meet the needs of the people they serve.

Over the years, we have grown into a trusted partner for councils and organisations across the UK. Today, we honour that legacy while embracing new opportunities to innovate and deliver even greater impact.

IESE, shaping better services, together.
