LGR: What happens to your technology estate now?

Date & time

  1. 27 November 2026 13:00 - 14:00

Location

  1. Virtual (Teams)

Local Government Reorganisation may be facing delays and uncertainty, but the underlying technology challenge remains.

As local authorities face continued pressure to reduce costs, share services and rationalise complex estates, you and your technology teams need a clear view of your applications, infrastructure and networks to make confident decisions about what to migrate, consolidate or decommission.

For many councils, that visibility is still fragmented across legacy systems, spreadsheets and tribal knowledge.

Without understanding the dependencies between applications, servers, networks and services, migration planning can become a lengthy manual exercise and decommissioning legacy technology carries significant operational risk.

Join Freshworks for a practical session on how you can build the technology visibility and migration blueprint needed to navigate organisational change – whether LGR proceeds now, later, or in a different form.

We’ll explore how to:

  • Discover and map complex technology estates automatically
  • Understand application, infrastructure and network dependencies
  • Identify duplication and opportunities for consolidation
  • Build safer, evidence-based migration and decommissioning plans
  • Reduce the time and risk involved in moving towards a more efficient operating model

The session will include a live Freshservice ITAM demonstration, showing how automated discovery and application dependency mapping can turn a fragmented technology estate into a clear, actionable view of what can be migrated, consolidated or safely decommissioned.

Because whatever happens next with LGR, councils still need to know what they have, how it connects and what they can safely change.
