Generation Digital welcomes Notion to the UK partner network as a core platform for AI success

Why Notion and why now?

Organisations are under pressure to deliver measurable productivity gains with AI while keeping data governed and work consistent. Notion is a connected AI workspace that helps teams codify knowledge, streamline projects, and automate repeatable workflows in one place. By welcoming Notion into our partner network and Generation Digital gaining a Certified Platinum Solution Partner status, we can help clients deploy Notion with confidence, align it with their controls, and link it to the rest of their toolset.

Notion AI now centres on two high impact capabilities: Q&A and Agents. Q&A lets employees ask natural language questions and get instant answers from the pages and databases they can access, with results respecting your workspace’s permissions and security controls. It can also search across connected sources via Enterprise Search for broader context. Agents in Notion 3.0 can complete multi step tasks end to end inside your workspace, create and edit pages and databases, and pull context from connected apps, which makes them ideal for repeatable workflows such as onboarding packs, research briefs, or weekly status updates.

Certified Platinum Notion Solutions Partner

Generation Digital is now a Certified Platinum Solution Partner for Notion in the UK. We recommend Notion as a core platform within our Pathway to AI Success programme, which gives enterprises an opinionated, role based way to adopt AI at scale.

Public sector teams can procure Notion and related services through the Crown Commercial Service G-Cloud framework. This offers a compliant route to adopt platforms that support responsible AI.

Our delivery teams include solution architects, product specialists, and adoption leads with experience across healthcare, research, energy, and professional services. We also support clients in North America, Europe, Australia, and the Middle East, which helps multinationals roll out consistently.

Where Notion fits in the Pathway to AI Success

Our Pathway defines the role each platform plays, so leaders can avoid overlap and close gaps. In that model, Notion is used to:

• Codify and govern knowledge: create a single source of truth for policies, standards, and operating procedures, with permissions and audit trails that suit the organisation.

• Run projects and programmes: structure initiatives with databases, templates, and automations that reduce manual effort.

• Make AI useful in daily work: apply AI to summarise notes, draft content, extract action items, and enrich knowledge without bouncing between tools.

Notion integrates with the rest of our recommended stack, which includes Asana, Miro, and Glean. Each platform is selected for a clear job to be done, then integrated to minimise duplicate effort.

We focus on clarity, speed, and measurable outcomes.

Our Notion delivery runs in five stages.

Blueprint: we map goals, risks, and constraints, then design your Notion architecture. This covers workspace hierarchy, database schema, relations and rollups, permissions, AI usage policy, and integration points. We define success metrics, the rollout plan, and the first three use cases such as policy hub, project initiation, or research workspace.

Onboarding: we configure the workspace, SSO and SCIM where required, groups and permissions, templates, and automations. Content is migrated from wikis and file shares with deduplication and QA to avoid clutter. Admins and champions are trained. Teams receive ready to use page and database templates that match the blueprint, including AI prompts and guardrails.

Adoption: role based enablement with playbooks for editors, reviewers, and viewers. We measure usage, contribution quality, search success, and cycle times against agreed KPIs. Feedback is used to refine templates, permissions, and AI settings, and to standardise naming and tagging.

Growth: expansion to new teams and use cases such as programme dashboards, knowledge bases for functions, and service catalogues. We integrate with the wider stack where appropriate, for example Asana for execution, Miro for design, and Glean for enterprise search. A centre of excellence governs templates, metadata, and interoperability standards.

Support: ongoing health checks, content hygiene, and change management. We review audit logs, permission drift, and template performance quarterly. Integrations are kept current, new features are evaluated, and refresher training is provided for new starters.

Security and compliance are built into every stage, from Blueprint to Support.

Public sector routes to buy

For UK public sector bodies, Notion licences and consulting services are available via CCS G-Cloud. This keeps procurement straightforward and compliant, while allowing teams to start with smaller pilots and scale once value is proven.

What we are saying

“British enterprises want AI that works in the real world,” said Graham Mackay, Chief Executive Officer, Generation Digital. “By designating Notion as a core platform in our Pathway to AI Success, we give leaders a practical route to codify knowledge, align teams, and embed responsible AI into the fabric of operations.”

“Enterprises need clarity, not chaos,” said Thomas Jones, Chief Digital Officer, Generation Digital. “The Pathway to AI Success defines the role each platform plays, and Notion’s flexibility helps teams establish the standards, permissions, and auditability that productive AI depends on.”

Who is Notion for?

• CIOs and CTOs seeking a governed knowledge and project layer for AI assisted work.

• Heads of PMO and Operations modernising delivery and scaling standard operating procedures.

• Public sector leaders who want a compliant path to adopt an AI ready workspace.

Frequently asked questions

Is Notion suitable for large enterprises in regulated industries?
Yes. We design the workspace structure, permissions, and review workflows to meet your governance needs, then validate against policies during onboarding.

How does Notion work with Asana, Miro, and Glean?
We define clear handoffs between platforms. Asana excels at cross functional execution, Miro at collaborative design, Glean at enterprise search and retrieval, while Notion holds structured knowledge and team workspaces.

What is the quickest way to prove value?
Start with one or two high value use cases, such as policy management, project initiation, or research hubs. Use our templates, measure outcomes, then scale to adjacent teams.

Can the public sector buy through CCS frameworks?
Yes. We guide teams through G-Cloud procurement and help structure a pilot that meets governance requirements.
