  1. Driving Value Through Collaboration SOCITM Conference 9th December 2013 Will Laing, ICT LG Programme Manager, GPS

  2. Key Topics • Drivers for collaboration • The roots of the LGA National Category Management for ICT • Our progress, goals and key initiatives • The Software Challenge • The Role of CIOs • Discussion

  3. Drivers for collaboration • Increase supply market Leverage • Develop shared technology strategies • Drive common solutions to common challenges (e.g. desktop migration) • Improve use and deployment of specialist resources • Improve citizen services • Contribute to meeting the LG funding challenge

  4. Roots of the ICT Project • The London Procurement Strategy Board: lots of common suppliers, little co-ordination • The Camden partnership with GPS • Integration with CIO groups in London • Full first-year programme delivering benefits in a wireless concession contract and a supplier management programme • LGA National Procurement Strategy • In ICT, our remit is to extend the London ICT Programme

  5. What we’ve achieved • Effective co-working with key CIOs across London • Good quality granular data – and a culture of sharing information • A collaborative wireless concession contract – the first for participating Boroughs • An extended SRD programme • An agreed programme of work on future procurement and technology priorities • The LGA support gives us a platform to transform our ICT markets and generate benefits • Extended partnership with GPS – now a dedicated team of 3 senior staff reporting to Terry Brewer as category lead • Delivered benefits of £2.5m in Year 1 with a solid platform for future growth

  6. Current Activity • Desktop Migration – London Desktop Alliance • Data Centres / Hosting • BT MOU implementation • G-Cloud Session: 16th December • Software Applications procurement • SOCITM engagement • An national operational procurement partnership with Local Authority PBOs

  7. LG Software Applications - Now • £500m + spend per year in Local Government • Councils report common issues around value, technology capability and service support • Multiple, independent budget-driven solutions – often extending failing agreements • A complex pattern of bespoke deployments and licensing model creates lock-in • A complete lack of transparency and control • Huge waste and lost opportunity

  8. LG Software Applications – A Major Opportunity for 2013/14 • A common procurement platform which enables access to ALL major systems • All commodity unit costs explicit • Flexible access: direct award and competition • Technology models: hosted, licensed, SAAS • A master standard SLA to enable agile deployment • Developed, owned and used by Local Government TCO reduction? …could be up to 50%

  9. Proposed Role for CIOs • To provide top-level technical governance with the Project reporting to each SOCITM / CIO Council meeting • To provide key contacts for all 9 Local Government Regions – to help shape the strategy, advise on priorities, champion the project, and provide access to local networks • To provide a focal point for building relationships between central and local government – based on local priorities
