Who we are

We are a not-for-profit organisation created to connect digital team members across public sector organisations to share knowledge about platforms like Granicus govService, Microsoft Power Platform and more.

The goal of the group is to collaborate and discuss how to overcome common issues and share knowledge for everything relating to CRM platforms and miscellaneous technologies being used in the public sector.
