Public Sector
The Public Sector is undergoing a greater rate of transformation as it moves to implement the latest information technology as part of widespread modernisation. Focus has shifted towards achieving better financial control and operational excellence through the use of managed service agreements with specialist providers.
ukngroup has been pioneering the use of new technologies throughout Central Government, Health and Education; allowing these organisations to step closer to their targets for modern, efficient, citizen-lead services.
With our understanding of the functions, structures and challenges being faced in this market, ukngroup are able to deliver an extensive range of solutions combined with high-quality support and service at a fixed, low cost per-user.
Our Open-Plan Technology (OPT) scheme, exclusive to the public sector, provides the blueprint for the evolution of desktop computing along with a suite of services and support which can be tailored to the specific requirements of any public body.
Flexibility is the key to providing the right services at the right cost.
Current challenges in the Public Sector
- Initiatives such as ‘Transformational Government’ and ‘eGovernment’ have outlined plans for technology-centric public bodies with emphasis on delivering improved services to the people that use them, in the most convenient manner.
- There is greater focus than ever for organisations, whether large central government bodies or smaller local services, to utilise similar approaches to those more commonly found within the private sector.
- Replacement of standard desktop computers with a secure, low cost, alternative is at the heart of the government’s IT strategy. The ukngroup Ultra Thin-Client proposition is a recognised best-of-breed solution to meet these requirements.
- The trade off between providing access and availability to services, data and information has to be weighed up against the need to operate in a secure and in some cases confidential manner. ukngroup has developed a solution which is highly secure yet also provides manageable, granular access.
