TechnologyOne has delivered a landmark year in the United Kingdom, establishing itself as the first-choice enterprise Solution as a Service (SaaS) provider for Higher Education and Local Government. A wave of new flagship customers, rapid expansion into new market tiers and record-breaking SaaS+ implementation speeds have made 2025 a milestone year for the company.

TechnologyOne ends its financial year with 61 local councils and 98 higher and further education institutions on board in the UK and has established itself as the leading disruptive force in a market long taken for granted by its competitors.

Stuart MacDonald, Chief Operating Officer at TechnologyOne said, “This year has set new records for TechnologyOne in the UK. We are the UK’s only provider of a fully integrated SaaS+ ERP platform, that’s purpose-built for councils and universities. Our turnkey solution disrupts a market long dominated by complex, costly vendors. We are transforming how councils and universities modernise. We don’t just deliver software – we deliver real, measurable outcomes.”

Landmark Higher Education wins include the University of Chester and the University of Hertfordshire, alongside a record-fast SaaS+ go-live at the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts in under 12 months – setting a new benchmark for the sector.

In Local Government, TechnologyOne secured high-profile councils such as the London Borough of Islington, the Royal Borough of Greenwich, and Doncaster Council, one of the UK’s largest metropolitan boroughs, all implementing the SaaS+ OneCouncil solution.

“These new customers reinforce TechnologyOne is the trusted partner for councils and universities seeking best-in-class, future-proof digital transformation backed by a delivery model designed to make “tech wreck” project blow outs a thing of the past,” said MacDonald.

The UK team has grown from 59 to 185 employees over five years, bolstering local leadership, product expertise, and delivery capabilities focused exclusively on UK customers and compliance.

“Our success reflects the trust councils and universities place in TechnologyOne. Every new partnership strengthens our presence and proves that SaaS+ is the fastest, most reliable way to modernise public sector services. Momentum is building, and we are firmly establishing TechnologyOne as the UK’s go-to ERP provider,” MacDonald added.

TechnologyOne’s ambition is clear: to be the recognised leader in digital transformation across the UK public sector. By combining purpose-built SaaS ERP, deep industry expertise, and a proven track record of delivery, TechnologyOne is restoring trust in IT projects and reshaping how councils and universities modernise to thrive.
