This document sets out the strategy to transform the business of government through increased and better use of technology. It is directed at three key areas: (1) the transformation of public services for the benefit of citizens, businesses, taxpayers and front-line staff; (2) the efficiency of the corporate services and infrastructure of government organizations; (3) the steps necessary to achieve effective delivery of technology for government. To achieve this, services must be designed around the citizen or business, not the provider. Government must move to a shared services culture, releasing efficiencies by standardisation, simplification and sharing. And there must be more professionalism in the planning, delivery, management, skills and governance of IT in government. A detailed action plan to implement the strategy will be approved by the Chief Information Officers' Council and the Service Transformation Board, and published before the end of this financial year. Comments on the strategy (by 3 February 2006) are welcomed: [email protected]; Strategy Team, eGovernment Unit, Cabinet Office, 3rd Floor, Stockley House, 130 Wilton Road, London SW1V 1LQ (tel 020 7276 63160)
