ESRI (UK) Transformational government, enabled by geography
The impact of the report Transformational Government: Enabled by Technology is being felt across government today. Public sector organisations are being pushed to deliver more citizen-focused services, to become more efficient and joined up, and to be more enterprising in their use of IT.
This is where geography can act as a powerful enabler. Recognising geography as the thread that unifies virtually all governmental activity, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) helps Government to perform and enhance a variety of tasks using a single, enterprise-wide GIS data repository.
Importantly, the potential of GIS in helping government achieve its transformational objectives is vast. Those organisations taking a more joined-up approach to GIS can use it to manage and extract value from data in almost any functional area – from finance and CRM, to planning and land charges – thus increasing efficiency, and avoiding duplication of effort.
Together with its partners, ESRI (UK) provides a variety of powerful GIS applications. These are designed to help local authorities deliver the greatest value from geographical data – empowering transformational government initiatives, and helping authorities deliver optimal service to citizens at all times.
