Responding to support needs in the public sector: exciting consolidation at CIPFA x C.Co

30-09-2024



CIPFA and C.Co have a long history of providing complementary support to the UK public sector through our advisory, consultancy and support service offering. To further enhance the exceptional services we offer, CIPFA C.Co will integrate with CIPFA from 1 October 2024.

This strategic move allows us to combine the expertise and resources of both teams under one banner – CIPFA Supports. Clients will continue to receive the same high-quality support from both organisations, but with the added benefit of accessing a broader range of services from CIPFA.

This integration signifies a positive step forward reflecting the needs of the market, including:

  • Streamlined Service Delivery: A single point of contact for all public sector improvement needs.
  • Enhanced Expertise: Access to a wider pool of experienced professionals across various disciplines.
  • Greater Efficiency: A more collaborative approach to delivering tailored solutions, saving time and resources.

CIPFA Chief Executive Owen Mapley said:

“This is an exciting move for both organisations. We are confident that this move will strengthen our ability to support CIPFA and C.Co public sector clients in achieving their goals across a wide range of issues, in what is an exceptionally difficult operating context.

“CIPFA has reached out to current and previous clients to support them through this change as this move will strengthen our ability to support success in the public sector.”

C.Co Chair and CIPFA COO Anna Blackman said:

“The opportunity to integrate with CIPFA will ensure that our expertise in change management consultancy will continue to improve organisational delivery to key public sector clients, while expanding the proposition of both organisations. We are dedicated to improving outcomes for our clients and the communities that they serve, and believe that this move will result in a better service for all.”
