Case Study: Dublin City Council achieves rapid cloud migration and centralised asset management with Asset Bank

Dublin City Council - Customer Case Study

Dublin City Council, Ireland’s largest local authority, struggled with a fragmented digital asset environment: files were scattered across shared drives, the on‑premise Asset Bank required special intranet logins that suppressed remote use, and external partners couldn’t access materials directly. This created low system adoption, inconsistent asset quality, extra IT overhead and costly duplication of work across departments.

The council migrated to Asset Bank’s cloud in just one week, enabling IP‑based single sign‑on, external logins, automatic feature updates, AI tagging, Portals and an External Uploader. The result was faster access and collaboration, rising staff engagement, reduced IT maintenance, and measurable time and cost savings by avoiding duplicated commissions—positioning the council to share high‑quality assets for upcoming cross‑authority campaigns.
