Methods Business and Digital Technology Limited

Methods is a £100M+ IT Services Consultancy partnering with central government departments and agencies to transform public sector operations in the UK. Established over 30 years ago and UK-based, we focus on transformation, delivery, and collaboration to create end-to-end, people-centered, safe, and future-ready solutions.

Our human touch differentiates us from other consultancies, system integrators, and software houses—placing people, technology, and data at our core. We aim to create value and sustainability for our clients, staff, communities, and the planet.

We support our clients' project success through collaboration, sharing skills, and solving problems. At Methods, we enjoy our work, learn from mistakes, and foster a fun working environment.

While primarily focused on the public sector, Methods is expanding into the private sector.
