Shared Services

Adopt shared services to promote efficient government

Initiatives such as the Transformational Government Agenda and the Comprehensive Spending Review 2007 encourage a shared service approach to working. Adopting this approach within your organisation will enable you to increase efficiency and to support service delivery that is more focussed on customer needs.

Objective’s solutions provide an excellent fit with a shared services initiative, as demonstrated by our involvement with the Scottish Government’s Scots Connect programme. This programme offers a networked desktop package and electronic records and document management to Government agencies and NDPBs across Scotland, with plans to expand out to the wider public sector over the coming months.

Using our solutions as part of a shared services agreement will allow you and your client agencies to increase efficiency, reorganise and reuse assets, avoid duplication of effort, share investments and implement best practice. Furthermore, it will encourage the development of closer cross-organisation collaboration by facilitating the sharing of information.
