Public Sector
Introduction
The emphasis placed on efficiency has increased, obviously fuelled by Gershon and Lyons, and further re-enforced by the ODPM’s 10-year vision, 'The Future of Local Government,' published in Autumn 2004.
Labour has made its views clear – there is no new money, but government will be challenged as never before, to provide more and better services at less cost.
Improved service delivery, better dialogue with citizens and communities, strong political and managerial leadership, joined-up services across local authorities, government departments and agencies and other organisations, are just some of the challenges currently facing the public sector.
Many local authorities and government departments and agencies are realising that there are considerable benefits in developing partnerships with private sector organisations.
Vertex has built a number of successful strategic service partnerships in this sector through offering our skills and experience, combined with suitable infrastructures and technology to provide an effective alternative to managing services in-house.
