Download or read book Delivering Successful IT-enabled Business Change written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2006-11-17 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Government set out its strategy to improve the delivery of public services through increased and better use of information technology (Cm. 6683, ISBN 0101668325) in November 2005, with the aim of ensuring services are designed around the needs of customers or citizens rather than the provider. Drawing on 24 case studies from the public and private sectors in the UK and overseas, this NAO report highlights examples of successful IT-enabled programmes and projects which have achieved tangible benefits for citizens and taxpayers and identifies good practice which can be transferred to new and existing government programmes and projects. It pinpoints three key issues in these success stories relating to: i) the degree of engagement by senior decision-makers; ii) the level of organisational understanding of what is needed to be an 'intelligent client' (in terms of having the necessary skills to negotiate effectively with suppliers and users); and iii) the importance of realising the benefits of change by determining at the outset what the desired benefits are and how the project will be managed to ensure these benefits are optimised.

Book Synopsis The Projectification of the Public Sector by : Damian Hodgson
Download or read book The Projectification of the Public Sector written by Damian Hodgson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-06 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, we have witnessed an increasing use of projects and similar temporary modes of organising in the public sector of nations in Europe and around the world. While for some this is a welcome development which unlocks entrepreneurial zeal and renders public services more flexible and accountable, others argue that this seeks to depoliticise policy initiatives, rendering them increasingly technocratic, and that the project organisations formed in this process offer fragmented and unsustainable short-term solutions to long-term problems. This volume sets out to address public sector projectification by drawing together research from a range of academic fields to develop a critical and theoretically-informed understanding of the causes, nature, and consequences of the projectification of the public sector. This book includes 13 chapters and is organised into three parts. The first part centres on the politics of projectification, specifically the role of projects in de-politicisation, often accomplished by rendering the political “technical”. The chapters in the second part all relate to the reframing of the relationship between the centre and periphery, or between policy making and implementation, and the role of temporality in reshaping this relation. The third and final part brings a focus upon the tools, techniques, and agents through which public sector projectification is assembled, constructed, and performed.

Book excerpt: The business of government is necessarily diverse, changing and of considerable scale. A focus on improving the implementation of government programs and initiatives is important because the community expects the Government to deliver on its policies, as does the Government. The papers included in this collection address numerous aspects of improving implementation. They were initially presented at the Project Management and Organisational Change conference held in Canberra in February 2006, the first annual research conference organised by ANZSOG in conjunction with the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet. This collection represents a comprehensive drawing together of experience and insight from both practitioners and academic researchers, with speakers including top public sector executives from the Australian jurisdictions as well as representatives from the United Kingdom, Canada and New Zealand.

Book Synopsis The National Offender Management Information System by : Great Britain. National Audit Office
Download or read book The National Offender Management Information System written by Great Britain. National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2009 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The project's original aim of a single shared database of offenders will not be met, though the number of databases used has been reduced from 220 to three. The new system was to be introduced by January 2008 and was to cost £234 million to 2020. By July 2007, £155 million had been spent on the project, it was two years behind schedule, and estimated lifetime project costs had risen to £690 million. The project was halted while options to get the budget under control were sought. The causes of the delays and cost overruns were : inadequate management oversight, significant underestimation of the project's technical complexity, weak change control and absent budget monitoring. The design of the main supplier contracts precluded pressure on suppliers to deliver to time and cost. In January 2008, NOMS began work on a re-scoped program with an estimated lifetime cost of £513 million and a delivery date of March 2011.

Book Synopsis The Private Finance Initiative by : Northern Ireland: Northern Ireland Audit Office
Download or read book The Private Finance Initiative written by Northern Ireland: Northern Ireland Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2005-11-10 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This NIAO report examines the delivery of the Electronic Libraries for Northern Ireland (ELFNI) IT system through a Private Finance Initiative (PFI) project. The ELFNI system is intended to improve access to and quality of public library services in Northern Ireland, by ensuring all public libraries have equal access to automated facilities and the internet and access for the general public to e-Government services. The contract is worth £36m and covers a ten-year period which commenced in May 2002. The report does not consider the effectiveness of the ELFNI project but focuses on the methodology used by the project team to secure the best possible deal; the sustainability of the deal over the contract life; and whether issues of future technological changes and income generation have been sufficiently addressed. Overall, the report finds that the procedures leading to the award and implementation of the ELFNI contract were well handled, but whether it will provide value for money to the taxpayer will only become apparent in the longer term.
Book Synopsis Reconstructing Project Management by : Peter W. G. Morris
Download or read book Reconstructing Project Management written by Peter W. G. Morris and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-05-28 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This hugely informative and wide-ranging analysis on the management of projects, past, present and future, is written both for practitioners and scholars. Beginning with a history of the discipline’s development, Reconstructing Project Management provides an extensive commentary on its practices and theoretical underpinnings, and concludes with proposals to improve its relevancy and value. Written not without a hint of attitude, this is by no means simply another project management textbook. The thesis of the book is that ‘it all depends on how you define the subject’; that much of our present thinking about project management as traditionally defined is sometimes boring, conceptually weak, and of limited application, whereas in reality it can be exciting, challenging and enormously important. The book draws on leading scholarship and case studies to explore this thesis. The book is divided into three major parts. Following an Introduction setting the scene, Part 1 covers the origins of modern project management – how the discipline has come to be what it is typically said to be; how it has been constructed – and the limitations of this traditional model. Part 2 presents an enlarged view of the discipline and then deconstructs this into its principal elements. Part 3 then reconstructs these elements to address the challenges facing society, and the implications for the discipline, in the years ahead. A final section reprises the sweep of the discipline’s development and summarises the principal insights from the book. This thoughtful commentary on project (and program, and portfolio) management as it has developed and has been practiced over the last 60-plus years, and as it may be over the next 20 to 40, draws on examples from many industry sectors around the world. It is a seminal work, required reading for everyone interested in projects and their management.

Book Synopsis Administration and expenditure of the Chancellor's departments, 2008-09 by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Treasury Committee
Download or read book Administration and expenditure of the Chancellor's departments, 2008-09 written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Treasury Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2010-03-09 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Chancellor's departments faced extraordinary challenges during 2008-09, mainly arising from the need to respond to the emerging financial crisis and associated economic downturn. The report concludes that it is very difficult to draw final conclusions regarding their level of success - too much remains unfinished business. It draws attention, in particular, to the new relationship between the Treasury and UKFI, and recommends that the Government considers whether the formal terms of the relationship need some re-definition in the light of experience. The report is particularly concerned by the dire results for HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) of a cross-Government staff survey pilot study. The Report calls for HMRC management to publish a clear and detailed plan to provide focus and direction to their efforts to re-engage with their workforce. Noting a rise in customer complaints and that, on average, only 57 per cent of calls to HMRC contact centres were answered during 2008-09. HMRC should publish more data to enable effective scrutiny of its performance against its targets, data which is essential for tax gaps to be closed and for the take up of the working tax credit to be assessed and improved. The Report is critical of the failure of most departments to provide accurate and timely monthly in-year figures to the Treasury. Other sections of the report cover National Savings & Investment, the revaluation of UK statutory ports and the performance of the Royal Mint.
