Experience
APSE has worked in a wide range of service areas. In every case APSE aims to create a more efficient council, which will provide a high quality service and excellent value for money. To see how APSE has achieved this in practice, please have a look through our case studies.
This month’s featured case study is Denbighshire County Borough Council.
APSE is a UK wide organisation and we have worked in local authorities across the UK. Our main focus has been in front line services, however APSE have worked in a wide range of service areas, ranging from street scene to procurement, catering to shared legal services.
