Scalable Approach to Vulnerability via Interoperability (SAVVI) Tech Working Group
Our Scalable Approach to Vulnerability via Interoperability (SAVVI) Tech Working Group gives you a direct say in how vulnerable people and households are identified and supported across local public services.
SAVVI is building data standards to help councils bring together data from many local and national organisations, working towards a secure, standards-based ecosystem rather than relying on one shared product. When you join the group, you help make sure those standards reflect how technology is actually built, bought and deployed.

Why SAVVI matters
Councils have to bring together data from many local and national organisations so they can lead a coordinated response with partner agencies and the community. That work is often held back because datasets are hard to find, semantics and quality are inconsistent, identifiers vary and there are no shared biographic standards.
How the group works
The group runs on active two-way participation, aiming to let innovation flourish while making sure the needs of vulnerable people are met. As a member, you’ll:
be a critical friend to the SAVVI project on anything tech-related
explore how SAVVI standards work alongside other standards
share how you plan to use the standards and pass on best practice for supporting vulnerable people
hear directly from the SAVVI team, give feedback on how the standards fit the market and help shape the group’s direction
