Cardiff County Council’s Success with Iken Cloud

Leveraging the benefits of modern cloud-based technology

Moving to Iken’s scalable, cloud-based system has provided a range of technological benefits, including a significant reduction in Council resources required to manage and maintain the legal team’s system, with updates and new features automatically applied through Iken’s SaaS subscription model.

Smooth Migration and Adoption

Iken’s Projects team worked closely with the Council’s key stakeholders at every stage of the onboarding and migration process to ensure that Iken Cloud was configured to meet the legal team’s specific needs. Coupled with comprehensive training and ongoing support, this resulted in a successful transition from the previous system and greater user adoption across the team.

Supporting the Council’s IT strategy

The introduction of Iken Cloud is further evidence of the Council’s ambition to introduce flexible and cost-effective technologies that support modern working practices, can be scaled as necessary, have the capability to integrate with other business systems and can cater for evolving needs.

Improved Fee Earner Engagement and Accountability

Iken Cloud provides fee earners with intuitive tools to manage their own cases. This has increased engagement and accountability, as fee earners can now easily track progress and manage increasing and often complex workloads, improving overall service delivery.

Enhanced Productivity

Implementing Iken Cloud has significantly reduced the administrative workload for Legal Services. By increasing automation within workflows, this has allowed the fee earners greater focus on their core legal responsibilities, increasing overall productivity.

Successful Integration with Other Technologies

Iken Cloud’s seamless integration with Bundledocs streamlines the onerous task of compiling and managing electronic bundles, freeing staff to focus on other priorities.

Driving Productivity and Accountability

The Council aimed to streamline its legal operations to improve productivity and engagement among its legal staff. By adopting Iken Cloud, the Council has significantly reduced the time spent on administrative tasks, allowing fee earners more time to focus on their core responsibilities. The system’s comprehensive reporting suite has enabled the Business Support team to speed up the production of billing data and provide a richer set of management information on demand. 

With Iken Cloud, fee earners have greater autonomy and can manage their own cases more effectively. Iken’s user-friendly interface allows users to open cases, track progress and generate reports independently. This has fostered greater engagement, with fee earners feeling more in control and accountable for their workloads. As one fee earner remarked:
