Overview
NEC Software Solutions is the British software arm of the Japanese group NEC, built largely from the 2018 acquisition of Northgate Public Services and its predecessors. It supplies the systems British public services run on: police records and intelligence platforms, local authority revenues and benefits, health screening and patient administration, fire and rescue command systems and public safety communications. Headquartered in Hemel Hempstead, it employs several thousand people across the United Kingdom and India, and much of its work requires security clearance because of the police and government data involved.

Products
Managed Services
Hosting, support and operation of the systems the company supplies. Public sector customers increasingly buy the outcome rather than the software itself, which shifts operational risk onto the supplier and lengthens the contracts considerably.
necsws.com
Public Safety Communications
Control room, dispatch and communications systems for fire, ambulance and emergency services. Availability requirements are absolute here, since the system failing means calls for help are not answered.
necsws.com
Health Systems
National screening programmes, patient administration and clinical information systems for health services. These run at population scale, where a defect in the invitation logic can mean thousands of people missing a screening appointment.
necsws.com
Local Government Software
Revenues, benefits, housing and council tax systems for local authorities. Legislative changes to benefit rules arrive regularly and must be implemented to a statutory deadline, which produces steady mandatory work.
necsws.com
Police Systems
Records management, intelligence and command systems used by British police forces. Replacing these platforms is a multi-year programme with operational risk attached, which is why forces stay with a supplier for a decade or more at a time.
