About Made Tech
Made Tech is on a mission to use technology to improve society - for everyone. We help organisations transform, deliver, and manage world-class digital products and services.
Today, you can see our services (and people!) in action, such as the design and build of the Homes for Ukraine service, delivered in 2 weeks. We’re helping local authorities make it easier and quicker for people to log housing repairs online. By digitalising access to NHS services, we’re making it more accessible, such as children needing mental health support.
All this experience enables us to support new areas, like energy. We’re helping to drive better environmental outcomes by improving network performance through real-time asset monitoring, which means less wasted energy.
We were recently named as a finalist in the Raising the Bar for Workplace Transparency Award in the Shift People Awards, recognizing our many great initiatives, such as our open-access employee handbook that we launched 5 years ago. #J-18808-Ljbffr
