AI for Government in Manchester

Applying AI in Manchester public sector organisations, where using it is a matter of public record. Algorithmic tools affecting the public are expected to be published in a transparency record, and prompts, outputs and the reasoning behind a decision can all be requested — so nothing here is done quietly.

Why this comes up

The problem

A tool influencing how cases are prioritised was adopted departmentally, unrecorded and undocumented.

AI for Government in Manchester — common questions

What has to be published?
Public bodies are expected to record algorithmic tools that affect the public, describing what the tool does, why it is used and how it is overseen. Treating that as a requirement from the start is considerably easier than assembling it after a journalist or a councillor asks.
Can prompts be requested under freedom of information?
Assume so. Information held by the authority is potentially disclosable regardless of the tool it sits in, so material entered into a system — and what came back — should be written on the basis that somebody may read it later.
What about the public sector equality duty?
It applies to this as to any other decision-making. Assessing who could be disadvantaged by an automated process, before it is deployed rather than after a complaint, is both the legal expectation and the way problems are found while they are still cheap to fix.
Where should a council start?
With internal administration nobody outside will be affected by. Drafting routine correspondence, summarising long reports, transcribing meetings and answering staff questions about policy all save time in overstretched teams without touching a decision about a resident.
Do you work with businesses across Greater Manchester?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North West, including Manchester and the surrounding Greater Manchester area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of Manchester businesses do you usually work with?
Demand is competitive and design-led — clients here are benchmarking against well-funded local products and expect the same standard. Beyond that we work across Digital & Tech, Media, Financial Services, Life Sciences and Hospitality.
Do you cover the areas around Manchester?
Yes — we work throughout North West, including Liverpool, Leeds, Sheffield. Manchester is an urban area of roughly 2,800,000+, and we take on work across the wider Greater Manchester region rather than the city boundary alone.
