A thorough readiness assessment is a vital pre-requisite for the creation of an actionable strategy.
Local authorities and other government organisations have had their budgets cut, but the demands of their customers have not reduced, either in their complexity or their volume.
The public expect organisations to provide better, digitally enabled, public services. This can only be achieved through well managed organisational change. Technology offers unparalleled advantages to enable these transformations, and cloud is one of these technologies.
You must execute with the full backing of leadership teams.
Delivering services better, faster, and cheaper means the public sector must find ways to reduce the risk and cost of failure. This can in part be achieved by increasing staff awareness and understanding of cloud/digital technologies, as well as planning and executing transformations with the full backing of their senior leadership teams.
- Building a compelling business case and a strategy for cloud and digital transformations, to maximise benefit realisation and value for money, is predicated on the quality of the analysis done to support your cause.
Situational awareness is assumed, often incorrectly.
Detailed situation assessments, baselining, cost modelling and prioritised strategic action planning, will greatly increase understanding and therefor the likelihood of overall success.
Do you understand your current situation, why you want to change and at what cost?
