The NSTA is committed to creating value through digital innovation. To achieve this, The NDR was originally developed and held by a third-party organisation as an on-premises solution with 1GB download limits and little data validation. This was problematic as the data was not within our control and resulted in vendor lock-in, breaching Government standards.

To resolve this, the service was brought in-house by transferring the data into an Azure cloud solution with a new front end designed with our partner, Osokey. In future, should we decide to switch vendors, we can replace the front end and retain rights and access to the data.

We have also readied the NDR to accommodate new data to satisfy our roles in carbon capture & storage and hydrogen.
