Your invitation to join us.

The current economic climate requires local authorities to analyse new information faster, make timely decisions to achieve business goals, and operate within ever shrinking budgets.

We all know that the volume and variety of digital information (both structured and unstructured) is growing. Just look around you at the type of information your organisation is collecting, that it did not capture in the past, and the resulting challenges:

• How do you manage this information today?
• What are the data life-cycle management challenges without
  a governance programme in place?
• What are the key business drivers that you should consider
  when managing data from its origin to its retirement?
• Is your authority able to harness this data to drive smarter
  business outcomes?

During our Executive Briefing we will summarise the key business and IT issues in this area, including potential barriers to progress. We'll also offer our 'point of view' to help you move forward.

The agenda includes:

Information security and governance – Do you know what data you have and who is accessing it?

Cost reduction and pain points – How much legacy and siloed data are you storing? Do you know what data you have and where it is?

Single view of the citizen – Customer case study and speaker – Citizen Index at the London Borough of Brent
