Technology is a powerful enabler for improving the lives of citizens if utilised correctly and appropriately. From systems implementations, to cloud adoption and digitising customer access, BetterGov follows a user-centric delivery approach aligned with the Government Digital Service Standards and Technology Code of Practice. Although we are an accredited partner to a number of software vendors, such as Microsoft and Unit4, BetterGov is technology agnostic and offers a broad range of expertise to support the most complex technology-enabled transformation programmes.
Systems Implementation
Implementing systems within the Public Sector is where it all began for BetterGov, specifically Health and Social Care IT systems. Over the years, and after two dozen successful implementations, BetterGov has organically developed expertise across a number of IT systems. We have now developed a strong track record in the implementation, integration, configuration and interoperability between core software systems across Social Care, Education, Health, Housing, HR and Finance. BetterGov delivers a range of services from discovery audit, business case creation and procurement, to full systems implementation and integration, including training and post-implementation support.
Automation
Automation is on its way to being widely implemented across the Public Sector, filtering its way down from large Central Government departments to Local Authorities and smaller NHS Trusts. Notable benefits include reducing overheads, standardising operational processes and effectively increasing capacity to meet spikes in service demand. BetterGov understands the benefits of Intelligent Automation and Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and through our flexible delivery model, we are well-positioned to support customers to fully achieve expected cost savings ROI, whilst ensuring effective change management and skills development.
Cloud Adoption
Properly implemented cloud technology can improve the speed of delivery, increase security and create opportunities for innovation. Successful cloud adoption increases cross-functional operations across Government organisations providing platforms and environments for civil servants to work more effectively together and take full advantage of the resulting benefits. From Cloud Procurement, through to Enablement, Migration, Application Development and Testing, BetterGov help clients follow the 'Cloud First' policy ensuring value for money and sustainability.
Smarter Working
Smarter working empowers us all to make the right decisions about where, when and how we work; optimising the use of workplaces and technology, and realising savings for the taxpayer. It improves productivity through a focus on outputs and enables a better work-life balance for all. Through identifying and utilising the right technology, BetterGov is able to support our clients create a digital workplace that is mobile and accessible, enabling collaboration, document sharing and improved communication.
Procurement and Contract Management
Technology procurement is seldom a one-size-fits-all process, especially when the goal is technology transformation within public sector organisations. BetterGov understands that invariably, technology procurement is cross-cutting and should involve key stakeholders from business, finance and IT to ensure business success and overall transformation. Not only are we well versed with UK government and EU procurement policies and channels but BetterGov is also experienced in drawing value for money through effective and purposeful contract management. Engaging with a specialist, vendor agnostic procurement partner (such as BetterGov) will not only reduce both hard and soft costs but also improve supplier service delivery and increase the focus on continuous improvements.
