The government's Shared Services Strategy is driving a significant ERP transformation designed to consolidate technology infrastructure and save hundreds of millions of pounds while dramatically improving operational efficiency across central government.

But for Arm’s Length Bodies (ALBs), the change process is far from straightforward. While departments are being guided through a defined ERP migration journey, ALBs face complex and strategic decisions about systems, data and operating models. Decisions made today will shape the future of the organisations' technological environment, but leaders may have limited visibility on the details of platforms being adopted by their sponsor bodies – and even less on the overall strategy for change.

To help leaders in ALBs navigate these complex challenges, Civil Service World is hosting a practical webinar designed to provide them with actionable insights and strategic advice on successful transition whether it happens in the short or long-term.

Held in partnership with public sector consultancy firm Civiteq, this webinar will bring together a panel of technology experts and leaders of recently transitioned organisations to share learnings and best practice, offering a unique opportunity to understand the nuances of ERP migration and help digital teams develop a robust approach to their ERP journey.

Discussion points include:

What is the strategic vision behind shared services and how can this inform ALBs’ plans?
How can organisations assess their readiness, build the right skills and prepare their workforce for ERP transition?
How can organisations prepare their data and systems for a future-ready ERP environment?
What strategies help enable service continuity and effective communication during ERP transition?
How can departments collaborate across organisations and help ALBs align effectively with their designated ERP cluster?
What hidden costs and potential savings should organisations be aware of?
How can ALBs balance short-term operational needs with long-term integration goals?
What does a sustainable technology strategy look like, and which emerging technologies should organisations explore?
