Vuelio is a communications, public affairs and media intelligence platform used by organisations across the public, private and third sectors to support stakeholder engagement, monitoring and analysis. It brings together a range of tools that enable the Combined Authority to develop a better understanding of the political landscape, manage stakeholder relationships and monitor issues relevant to its work. Vuelio’s Stakeholder Services are designed to support the management of relationships with external stakeholders, including regulators, partner organisations, industry bodies, charities and community groups. The service enables the Combined Authority to maintain a centralised record of stakeholders, record interactions and connect engagement activity with relevant issues, projects and policy areas. Vuelio’s Political Services provide tools to monitor and engage with the wider political and policy landscape. This includes political monitoring across UK and devolved institutions, covering parliamentary activity, government announcements and statements from political representatives. The platform also provides access to a regularly updated database of political contacts, including elected representatives, civil servants and advisers, as well as functionality for alerts and tracking specific issues. Combined, these services provide the Combined Authority with a single system for maintaining visibility of stakeholder relationships and political developments. This supports informed decision-making and helps to coordinate public affairs, stakeholder engagement and communications activity effectively.
