•Government will be able to more easily exploit
commodity ICT products and services, in a flexible
and agile way. Buying and changing the services
when they are needed; and then reusing, reusing,
reusing
• The G-Cloud Programme is continuing to deliver
the programme, under the leadership of the GCloud delivery board.
•The number of foundation deliver partners is
increasing; through them we are seeing real
progress and having success in piloting cloud
services.
•OJEU for Cloud services has been released.
Objectives
Opportunities
•A competitive marketplace continually improving
quality
•Common commodity solutions that can be shared
and are low cost – on a pay by use basis
•Develop an AppStore for government
•Flexibility and freedom to change products and
providers
•Rationalise existing hosting services across
government.
• Enable a broad range of SMEs and emerging
suppliers to provide cloud services to government.
•Bring about a large scale change in the way ICT is
bought, run and used.

Public Services Network (PSN)
Vision
Update
•A fundamental change in the Government’s approach to
buying and operating Telecommunications Services;
working together across government as a joined up
intelligent customer to create one logical network for the
provision of public services
•Initial core network infrastructure in place, successful endto-end proof of concept, wide scale adoption across all parts
of the Public Sector continuing through 2012
•It will enable new and creative ways of joining up and
delivering public services
•Customer engagement across both central and non-central
government
•National procurement frameworks being put in place for
network connectivity and associated services
•Supplier engagement, including the establishment of PSN
supplier body (PSNGB)
Objectives
Opportunities
•Create a competitive market place and provide greater
choice for Telecommunication services
•Review your business strategy and plans for the public
sector in light of the opportunities presented by this new
approach
•Enable new and creative ways of joining up and delivering
public services from any place by any provider
•Substantially reduce the cost of Telecommunication
services across UK Government
•Use open standards wherever possible
A New Way of Working : 21/11/11 : 3 of 8
•Consider new ways in which you can support your public
sector customers
•Engage with the established PSN supplier body (PSNGB)
and through it have a voice at the centre of this major
programme
End User Device
Vision
Update
The End User Device Strategy is a key enabler in changing
the way that government works.
The pan-government strategy – produced collaboratively by
HMRC, Cabinet Office and the 5 largest central government
consumers of ICT – has been published.
It will help departments increase the productivity, flexibility
and mobility of their workforce, by delivering a range of
standard devices at lower cost so that Government can
deliver better, more agile and cost effective public services.
We are mobilising: The core programme team is in place to
deliver the strategy over the next 18-months.
We are engaging across the wider public sector to ensure a
broad consensus and to maximise opportunities for
departments and suppliers.
Objectives
Opportunities
Over the next few months we will:
•produce the outline vision for the programme and define
the outcomes to be delivered and what this means for
departments and suppliers
•engage with key stakeholders to communicate vision,
outcomes and benefits
•produce an outline business case to define the costs and
benefits for the preferred approach
•develop example solutions to highlight the benefits and
challenges of implementing the strategy
Currently there are 3 ways that suppliers can support the
delivery and implementation of the strategy, by:
•working with departments to start implementing the
principles of the strategy;
•volunteering to help deliver demonstrators that showcase
the principles of the strategy;
•engaging with us to help refine and shape our approach by
contributing ideas, innovation and experience.

Greening Government ICT Strategy
Vision
A cost effective and energy efficient ICT estate, which is
fully exploited, with reduced environmental impacts to
enable new and sustainable ways of working for the public
sector
Together with tackling cost of public services, the green
agenda sits at the heart of Government and the Strategy
sets out how government ICT will contribute to green
commitments and practices
Update
•Greening Government ICT Strategy published Oct 2011
•Look to the governments’ Green Delivery Unit (GDU) to track
implementation of the Strategy, having been instrumental in
its production. This builds on :
- Work book of good practice produced to guide departments
in delivering benefits by implementing green initiatives
- Highlighted 14 key outcomes and the means of achieving
them
-Engaged industry and experts to promote ideas and set
targets
-These initiatives contributed to the 10% carbon reduction
within HMG and will support further reductions
Objectives
Opportunities
The Strategy details 9 commitments delivered by 17
actions. These fall into the 4 sections of the strategy:
•Measurement and Progress Reporting - Transparent
•Greening the ICT Infrastructure – Reducing waste and
improving efficiency
•Exploiting ICT to green:
- Government Operations - reduced business travel and
government estate, more effective processes and improved
customer engagement
- Public Services - designed, delivered and available to the
public in forms which minimise carbon impact and enable
the green agenda
•Government will work with supplier and research groups
to foster and promote innovative green solutions
A New Way of Working : 21/11/11 : 5 of 8
•Government will award contracts that appropriately
consider green solutions – as tenders will be assessed for
financial and green cost of ownership
•Suppliers need to consider their supply chain, the design,
manufacture, operation and disposal of ICT and
demonstrate how their proposed solutions contribute to
greening government ICT
