Working to help fulfil your mobile potential

Nomad is a centre of excellence for mobile and flexible working in local government.

Owned by Cambridgeshire County Council, with contributions from many local authorities across the country,  Nomad's aim is to analyse, demonstrate and evaluate the potential benefits and savings that can be made by introducing mobile and flexible working technology solutions.

Nomad also plays a valuable role in promoting the solutions being implemented in local government across the UK, developing detailed case studies and hosting events to spread the word.
