Delivering Lower Costs and Higher Effectiveness for Public Services
The aim of most governments is to deliver high levels of services to citizens, as efficiently and cost effectively as possible. Here the focus is on standardizing and simplifying the IT landscape by developing more shared infrastructures, shared standards and shared capabilities. This in turn implies clever and cost efficient investments in effective technology.
Public services must provide users, suppliers and the public an efficient and transparent infrastructure at any time and in any place. Therefore Government bodies will focus on “doing more with the same” while striving to implement better public services through e-Government and e-Citizen initiatives. And to achieve the efficiency and the cost cutting levels required, sourcing is always on the agenda.
