Combined authorities and councils have faced pressure for some time; budget cuts, increasing customer expectations and changing demands. Then we’ve seen the rapid operational changes caused by maintaining COVID-19-secure services, while managing new remote working processes. Add uncertainty about a potential new devolution settlement and funding as central government pursues its levelling up agenda. But change also brings opportunity and KPMG can help local and regional government succeed.
Success means every aspect of local government should be connected. Strategies must be driven by the latest insight. Services must continually innovate to keep up with customer expectations. There is no room or budget for unnecessary friction in commercial transactions and supply chains must be responsive to cope with the unexpected. The workforce must maintain this year’s flexibility for the changes to come. All of that is only possible by investing in 21st century digital architecture and by having the right network of partners and alliances to support in specialist areas.
