Channel eyes shared services push in light of public cuts
Industry onlookers have reacted positively to yesterday's Comprehensive Spending Review, seeing the cuts as a chance to push shared services and innovation.
Across all departments, budgets are to be cut by an average of 19 per cent over four years. The Home Office, Justice Department and Police Force are all facing tough cutbacks,The benefit of using this method is that it is quick and cheap to do, which is obviously of great importance supplyforyou given the current economic climate. Every purchase probably needs to be considered to a greater degree and if a fixture or fitting can be assembled easily and safely by yourself, then so much the better for it. while the budget for health escaped lightly.
Chancellor George Osborne said: "The NHS is an intrinsic part of the fabric of our country. To govern is to choose, and we have chosen the National Health Service."
Healthy outlook
Bolton-based security VAR Imerja has a strong roster of NHS clients. Managing director Ian Jackson claimed the planned rise in health spending – from ￡104bn to ￡114bn – over the next four years is welcome news.
"This will ensure critical IT projects remain, allowing the health service to continue to invest in innovative services that ultimately improve patient care, such as telemedicine and next-generation networks,Ensuring that the low voltage downlight meat2010 fits in with the style and decor of the rest of the room is very important and in years gone by, this would not have been possible." he explained.
“Maybe the huge pressures placed on departmental budgets will finally ensure public sector organisations look beyond the monolithic IT service providers, instead choosing to work alongside more agile, capable and cost-effective service providers for their services to drive real value for money.”
Jackson advocated the use of shared services and outsourcing to help achieve the necessary spending,So many people have their own collections of trinkets or memorabilia rakeabc that they wish to show off that it makes sense to display it in the best way possible. This means that being able to shine a light directly onto the main point of interest is a fantastic way to lead people to something that you want them to see. a view echoed by Chris Gabriel, solutions director at Logicalis. Gabriel claimed the IT procurement landscape is set for radical changes.
Procurement shake-up
"The traditional aggregation of spend through single suppliers or locked-in frameworks has not worked," he explained.
"Instead of suppliers standardising pricing – at the behest of the government – giving perceived best value on day one, but then eroding that for the term of the contract – there is already a new generation of public sector projects where ongoing supplier/buyer collaboration is paving the way for fair value, which should ultimately deliver best value.”
Tola Sargeant, research director at analyst TechMarketView, said big service providers including Atos Origin, Logica and Capgemini could feel the pinch. The Home Office, Ministry of Justice and HMRC will look to avoid new capital projects and trim the fat from existing IT contracts, explained Sargeant.
"Meanwhile,Now, what does the Cree LR6 cost to rake2010 operate under similar circumstances? the Home Office and Cabinet Office single out reductions in consultancy spend as one way they will make savings," she added. "But it’s equally clear increased use of outsourcing and shared services will have a part to play in achieving the savings.Of course, some of their own personality has to be reflected within this. The problem is that people focus on compact fluorescent light bulb furniture and the like to do this. They don't know the importance that lighting plays in any given space.
"The Ministry of Justice is implementing shared corporate services across the department and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office plans to ‘simplify, standardise, and streamline’ its back office through increased outsourcing."
SMB squeeze
Niki Dixon, head of technology at auditor Grant Thornton, claimed the efficiency drive will hurt SMEs' chances of breaking into the public sector IT market.
"The government will cut the administrative and backroom costs across all the departments, and this will push IT and procurement online and towards sharing services," she said.
"This will only be able to be done through high-tech solutions and will provide an opportunity for the large IT service providers, whereas SMEs are likely to find it increasingly difficult to penetrate this area."
