Transforming public services through innovation and collaboration.
At PwC, we’ve built a wealth of experience partnering with government departments and public sector organisations across the country. By combining our deep understanding of technology, laws and regulations, we’re committed to transforming how public services are delivered. From helping local authorities embrace digital transformation to enhance citizen services to conducting periodic critical reviews, we offer tailored solutions to identify key risks, drive sustainable outcomes and ensure you stay ahead in a rapidly changing world.
Our areas of expertise
Ireland’s government and public sector bodies face numerous challenges, but they are also well-positioned to leverage digital solutions like GenAI and cloud computing. That’s where we come in.
- Education
- Housing and Local Government
- Public Sector
- Transport
Education
Financial sustainability, legacy technology, institutional integration and the rise of AI are just some of the challenges the education sector is grappling with. Global events like the COVID-19 pandemic have accelerated the need for higher education institutions to offer online learning. At the same time, student learning styles, mental health and wellbeing are also in the spotlight.
PwC is well-equipped to deliver innovative solutions to these challenges. With our track record in large-scale transformation, digital solutions and GenAI, we can help revolutionise the education experience. Take our Connected University platform as an example—a modern, cloud-based student record and CRM system that puts students at the heart of the education provider’s transformation journey.
Housing and Local Government
Coordinated and sustainable housing and infrastructure development is essential to meeting the government’s housing commitments. For local authorities, closing the ‘digital gap’ between current service delivery and the standards of a modern, digital public sector is more critical than ever. Digital transformation promises a step-change in how customers experience public services while driving operational efficiency.
At PwC, we have extensive experience delivering major change and digital transformation programmes. We provide strategic planning services and help organisations harness, analyse and embed data in their operations. With a solid commitment to sustainability and deep expertise in ESG, we’re also well-placed to help strengthen and align national and local climate policy.
Public Sector
We’re passionate about strengthening public services. Our core values reflect the Design Principles for Government in Ireland, guiding us to listen, collaborate, experiment and co-create with our public sector clients to achieve meaningful results for the people of Ireland. With expertise spanning large-scale transformation, design thinking, change management, systems design and strategic planning, we have much to offer.
We also provide ESG and digital solutions at a time when climate change, renewable energy, GenAI and cybersecurity are top priorities for organisations. We can help government departments and state bodies prepare for periodic critical reviews (PCRs) and maximise the significant benefits these reviews offer. Insights from our global network of PwC public sector experts and projects in other countries add further value and quality to our work.
Transport
Transport is vital for connecting people, places and businesses. Investment in integrated transport infrastructure is crucial for Ireland, as is the transition to green energy and electrification. This encompasses all-island rail connectivity, electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, and developing regional services. Given our island status, a global mindset is also essential.
The Climate Action Plan 2024 sets legally binding targets for Ireland to halve emissions by 2030 and reach net zero by 2050, with transport a key sector impacted by these limits. At PwC, we have the expertise to help you navigate the major transformation programmes needed to achieve these targets, with transport modelling and stakeholder engagement being crucial components.
