Welcome to the latest issue of Interface magazine!
San Francisco Police Department: A Technology Transformation
San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) CIO William ‘Will’ Sanson Mosier is ignited by the transformative power of technology to enhance public safety and improve lives. “Ultimately, my motivation stems from the relationship between individual growth and organisational success. When we invest in our people, we empower them to innovate, problem-solve, and deliver exceptional results. In turn, the organisation thrives, solidifying its position as a leader in its field. This virtuous cycle of growth and innovation is what drives me.”
OSB Group- Building the Bank of the Future
Group Chief Transformation Officer Matt Baillie talks to Interface about maintaining the soul of a FinTech with the gravitas of a FTSE business during a full stack tech transformation at OSB Group. “We’ve found the balance between making sure we maintain regulatory compliance and keeping up with customer expectations while making the required propositional changes to keep pace with markets on our existing savings and lending platforms.”
Urenco: Accuracy is Everything
We speak with the CIO of Urenco – an international supplier of enrichment services and fuel cycle products for the civil nuclear industry. Sarah Leteney talks about the ways this unique business leverages technology, and the big difference a small team can make. “We work in a high threat environment and there are many special considerations to understand. There is a rhythm to what we do to work at a pace which suits the organisation, rather than keep up with the latest trends in IT.”
Langham Hospitality Group: Technology, Strategy, Innovation
Langham Hospitality Group SVP, Sean Seah, talks hospitality informed by innovation, and falling in love with the problem, not the solution. “You’ve got to pilot something small – ideate it, then you can incubate it, and if it works you figure out how to industrialise it.”
Midcounties Co-operative: A Digital Transfomation
The Midcounties Co-operative is home to over 645,000 members and employs more than 6,200 people across multiple brands and locations, including over 230 food retail stores across the UK. We spoke with CIO Jacob Isherwood to learn about its approach to data management. “Whether you’re running a nursery, managing a natural gas pipeline, or selling tins of beans, data helps manage complexity and meet challenges from a place of understanding.”
