How Concerto helps drive smarter property decisions across a growing coastal town

Blackpool Council

Blackpool isn't just a seaside destination. It's a place with a clear plan for growth. With major ambitions for regeneration, housing and infrastructure, the Council needed a system to help turn strategy into action.

They chose Concerto.

 

Blackpool

From plans to progress, all in one platform

Since 2007, Blackpool Council has used Concerto to manage its property estate more efficiently. What began as a way to centralise data is now a key part of how the Council delivers across departments.

Over 250 users rely on the platform to:

  • Manage property assets across the portfolio
  • Log site activity in real time using mobile devices
  • Streamline processes and standardise workflows
  • Reduce admin while increasing control and visibility

“Concerto gives us a single source of truth across our portfolio and it's so intuitive, the entire team is on board.”

Less time on admin, more time delivering value

Concerto has become part of daily working life. Engineers and surveyors record work on site, processes run smoothly and teams have the clarity they need to move quickly and confidently.

  • High adoption with minimal training
  • Clear audit trails and real-time updates
  • A model of best practice now shared with peers across the UK

This isn't just about saving time. It's about building capability. Concerto helps Blackpool Council work smarter, stay focused and deliver against long-term goals.

Supporting regeneration, every step of the way

From strategy to operations, Concerto gives Blackpool Council the tools to manage its estate, stay compliant and support its wider ambitions for the community.
