Logica moving ahead together
Radical change is inevitable for public sector organisations like yours. Operational costs have to be cut. At the same time citizens and stakeholders are demanding a better service. Old systems and ways of working are no longer fit for purpose. The modern approach is to improve efficiency, with quality information enabling more effective management as well as better forecasting and planning.
How to achieve this? We believe it’s by sharing services. All the evidence suggests that these will be the norm across the public sector, in Europe, by 2013.
By sharing services you will have the quickest and simplest way to achieve direct savings of up to 30-40 per cent. What’s more it’s a solution that will also pay for itself quickly, normally
with a full return on investment (ROI) within two years. The main legacy is a better way of working, as you will have the knowledge to see where spending is concentrated and inefficiencies exist so you can eliminate them.
The model you choose for sharing services is likely to be as individual as your organisation. How fast and how far you want to go, depends on your readiness for the changes ahead. Whether you want to share services internally, with other public sector bodies, or with third-party providers you will have a platform for transformation. From it you can significantly reduce your costs and rationalise your IT
investments to deliver better, more cost-effective citizen services.
