UK Government transformation: how we overcome key challenges and accelerate progress

Working with the UK's largest government departments, Citrix are seeing a notable shift from traditional infrastructure such as locked down networks and thin clients, to more agile services such as Windows 10, Office 365 and public cloud, which comes as a direct result of the Government Transformation Strategy 2017–2020. However, alongside this they are also recognising that a number of these initiatives are stalling at the first hurdle or moving more slowly than anticipated, due to a few common challenges such as:

• The ‘evergreen’ nature of Windows 10 and Office 365
• Legacy application integration
• Data sprawl
• Collaborating with external parties
• Internet security concerns

Citrix understand the challenges faced by a public sector undergoing digital transformation. They see the opportunity to help and accelerate these transformation initiatives which will ultimately bring increased flexibility, security and productivity to central government teams through a powerful combination of proven solutions and deep sector understanding. It is not surprising then that government is looking to leverage cloud-based services to aid its transformation, but is there a way to accelerate this, and overcome the challenges being faced?
