Public Sector IT departments need to take stock

Today the UK revealed an unprecedented and deep reaching spending review covering the length and breadth of the public sector. The timing couldn’t have been worse for the many high level government IT departments who had already begun their regular infrastructure refresh reviews. IT managers in public sector departments are now scrambling around to undertake a full infrastructure review and look at what infrastructure they have got, what has been long forgotten, what is being used optimally and what can be redeployed across disparate offices and departments.

Only by understanding their hardware and software estate can public sector IT Managers work effectively within the new budget constraints.
