The Government 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝘆 (GSSS) is transforming how departments operate, helping them share resources, reduce costs and boost efficiency. Yesterday we shared an interview with Terri Williams, our Customer Solutions Lead for Central Government, in which Terri discussed this transformative strategy. Today we share a case study of our work with a #CentralGovernment department, as they prepare for their GSSS transition. This Central Government department was already on a cloud-based ERP system but needed our support to: 🔺 Assess their existing technical landscape versus where they want to be 🔺 Provide cyber security support 🔺 Build a future-proof data strategy 🔺 Provide Project Management Office (PMO) support To read about our approach & the challenges, as well as the outcomes & benefits, 𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝘆. #CentralGovernment #LocalGov #DigitalTransformation #ERP #ArmsLengthBodies
