Transformation mission
New and innovative ways of working that are better for communities and more efficient.
Our ambitious and entrepreneurial spirit will make sure our residents have bright futures. We will work with our partners and communities in new ways, embracing technology and different approaches to create opportunities and reduce inequality. We will do this using the limited amount of money we have available.
We will continue to carefully manage our resources and will focus on creating a new relationship with communities, while providing efficient services that offer value for money and are valued by our residents.
Our transformation programme will ensure we reduce the budget gap by £9m and deliver a balanced budget each year, while continuing to deliver good and efficient services with the resources we have available.
The scale of the budget challenge we are facing means we need to get on with the transformation work quickly and that is why 14 transformation reviews are under way already.
Each project is led by a Project Sponsor and supported by a Project Delivery Manager.
Although all of these reviews will not come to a conclusion at the same time, we expect to start seeing the results of the new ways of working in this financial year.
Garry Cummings, Director of Finance, Transformation and Performance, is the mission lead supported by Marc Stephenson and Dave Willingham.
