Ascend Technologies

Technology for public bodies, agencies and institutions.

Institutions manage records, requests and approvals that must be accurate and accountable. Ascend can build systems that bring structure and visibility to that work.

What Ascend can build

  • Records and registries
  • Approval workflows
  • Reporting dashboards

Common operational challenges

Problems organizations in this sector often run into when records and processes are managed by hand.

  • Paper registries and manual filing

    Physical records are slow to search, hard to back up and vulnerable to loss.

  • Slow approval chains

    Requests wait on desks and in inboxes with little visibility of where they are.

  • Reporting to oversight bodies

    Compiling figures by hand takes time and invites inconsistency.

  • Tracking requests from the public or members

    Without a system, requests are hard to follow up and measure.

Technology opportunities

Where well-designed software can make the day-to-day work easier and clearer.

  • Digital registries

    Searchable, backed-up records with controlled access.

  • Visible approvals

    Each request routed, tracked and recorded from submission to decision.

  • Consistent reporting

    Reports generated from the same underlying records every time.

  • Online request channels

    Portals where people submit and follow requests.
