A complete platform that sits on top of the National CMS, covering over 25 areas of diocesan operations from safeguarding through faculty to net zero. Built over 13 years alongside diocesan secretaries, archdeacons, DSAs and DBF teams.
Five officers and five disconnected systems. Safeguarding, DAC, finance, comms and parish admin all sat in their own silo. The diocesan secretary stitched it together by hand. DBS renewals fell through the cracks the day Karen retired and her spreadsheet retired with her.
Every clergy person, layperson, churchwarden and role-holder, with their roles, DBS status, MDR cycle, training and history all visible in one place to the people who need it and hidden from those who don’t.
Vacancy, faculty, DBS renewal, ordination, Section 11 schemes. The work is to adopt the workflows the Church of England already runs on, not to invent new ones.
The National CMS stays the data of record; we make it usable. Two-way sync, role-aware permissions, audit trails throughout.
Every cycle, every cadence and every role-holder a diocese touches. The list below is a representative sample; the platform covers more. The whole thing is one platform, not a set of modules sold separately.
A handful of screens from a live diocese. Mock data shown; the same layouts run against real CMS data once you’re onboarded.
"Before DMS we had five different systems and a person whose job was effectively to copy data between them. That role doesn't exist anymore. She's doing actual work now."— Diocesan Secretary · UK Diocese · 2025
