We're just one week away from the Annual NicheRMS UK User Group Conference. Paul Blake and Mick Philpotts from the PND Data Migration Support Service team will be attending, joining discussions on where NicheRMS is heading and how forces are using data to support operational decision-making.

Yesterday was International Women’s Day, and we’re recognising the work of organisations like Women in Data that continue to strengthen representation and progression across the data profession. At Datalynx, we maintain a zero gender pay gap because equity in pay should be standard, not exceptional. We’re proud of the women across our teams and the role you play in shaping our organisation.

Looking forward to attending Security & Policing 2026 alongside our colleagues at CACI. A great opportunity to engage with partners and peers from across the security and policing community. You’ll find us at Stand B23, where we’ll be sharing more about our work supporting security and policing organisations across the sector.

Secure By Design promises resilience, assurance and control, but none of it works if security is added at the end. When controls are bolted on late, risk concentrates: • Access models retrofitted around live data • Audit gaps identified during assurance • Rework in migration logic • Delays at accreditation In regulated programmes, security defines data structures, permissions and cutover sequencing.

We’re excited to be attending the Annual NicheRMS UK User Group Conference later this month. The event brings together representatives from more than 30 UK police forces to explore how data, technology and operating models across policing are evolving. We look forward to hearing from colleagues across the sector and discussing work shaping the future of policing data.

When the same thing is described in multiple ways, accuracy becomes difficult to maintain. This is common when data is entered independently across different teams, systems, or organisations. Small variations in language and structure quickly undermine consistency and trust. This is where reference data plays a critical role. Our Reference Data Management Service maps multiple descriptions of the same entity to a single, agreed reference, helping ensure data remains consistent, governed, and reliable across systems. In environments where data supports operational decision-making and must stand up to scrutiny, that consistency matters. Head to the comments for more.

Doing the right thing isn’t limited to delivery. We’re proud to support DENS - Helping Rebuild Lives a local charity supporting people facing homelessness, poverty, and social exclusion across Dacorum. Our approach to sustainability goes beyond ticking boxes. Guided by a principle of do no harm, we aim to contribute positively to the communities around us and ensure our growth is responsible and sustainable.

“What’s the right thing to do?” That question sits at the centre of how decisions are made here at Datalynx. In complex, regulated environments, clarity on values and experience gives teams the confidence to act when it matters. When things aren’t clear-cut, decisions are grounded in judgment and doing the right thing. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/ejHXn7i8

Our work spans government, law enforcement, private enterprise, and software-led organisations. Across these environments, teams are dealing with multiple systems, large volumes of data, and outcomes that need to stand up to scrutiny. That’s where experience matters. Consistency and trust sit at the centre of that work. Head to the comments to explore our client portfolio.
