ERP systems are essential for running core functions in any organisation, and the importance of buying and managing these systems effectively is recognised in the government’s Shared Services Strategy, designed to consolidate technology infrastructure while making large savings and operational improvements across central government.
While ALBs will in time be able to take advantage of this ambitious transformation programme, they must also ensure existing systems are up to date and fit for purpose, making investment decisions which will support current needs while also preparing for future change.
They must make those decisions in the context of tight budgets, complex procurement and governance requirements, and with a view to supporting effective change management as well.
In this evolving environment, CSW and Civiteq are bringing together a panel of public sector experts for a webinar that will support digital leaders in ALBs to improve their strategic ERP planning. Whether you are actively preparing for ERP transition or planning longer-term technology change, this session will provide practical tips, examples of best practice, and expert advice aligning ERP strategy with organisational goals.
Key discussion points:
- What does good ERP planning look like?
- How can ALBs approach strategic decision-making around ERP systems, platforms, and data?
- What steps can digital leaders take now to build organisational readiness and reduce future risk?
- What lessons can be learned from recent ERP transitions in comparable public bodies?
- What are the latest updates on the Government Shared Services plan and how can ALBs stay aligned with this programme and adaptable to future cluster developments?
- What common pitfalls, hidden costs or misaligned assumptions should ALB leaders be aware of?
