Benefits are like Pokemon – you’ve got to catch them all!
I’ll be the first to admit, I may have over done it on the title. But there is a seriousness to the point I raise. In my experience, I have conversations with client teams who can tell me about all the “fantastic” work they are currently doing or plan to deliver but lack either all…
Go-Live is Just the Beginning: Realising the Full Potential of Digital Transformation in the Public Sector
