Civil Government Market Drivers

The Coalition Government’s development of its Big Society concept will shift empowerment and the ability to decide and spend, from the Centre to local people in a way that promises to place an unprecedented burden of care and efficiency on many distributed organisations at a local level.

 

This transformational agenda will be enabled by the development of innovative information-based applications and systems, as well as effective investment in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure to empower both government and citizens alike.

 

Outlined below are some of the key initiatives that are driving the delivery of such efficient, citizen-centric services, and greater freedom of information, as well as details about how VEGA is working alongside government to manage risk and realise higher levels of success from their programmes and systems:
