Our policy impact

Our impact on UK Government policy-making

Since 2016, we’ve delivered over 120 projects across 23 government bodies, achieving an average customer satisfaction score of 4.8 out of 5, and significantly enhancing policy effectiveness and cost-efficiency.

We deliver 20-30 policy projects per year, working closely with experts to offer colleagues the best available analysis and advice.

Our collaborations have brought together over 2,000 experts from academia and industry, influencing policy across major government departments such as the Home Office, MoD, DHSC and more.

The teams we work with have emphasised how we’ve helped them gain new perspectives on their policy issues, developed and broadened their expert networks, and better understand the expert evidence in their policy areas.

Hear what they have to say:

We had a fantastic experience working with OIT, and it enabled us to achieve so much more with our trust project than we could have independently.

Ministry of Justice

The speed at which OIT was able to obtain and present a baseline understanding of existing academic research in our field of interest was beyond our in-house capabilities.

Department for Education

The OIT produced an excellent piece of work, which addressed exactly the topics the team were considering at just the right moment.

Cabinet Office
