Public Sector

Focus on purpose, quality and productivity

Key industry trends 

The public sector includes national and regional government departments such as ministries, regional and city municipalities, development funds and trade associations, defence, justice and social security organisations, educational institutions and healthcare institutions.

Examples of trends influencing the sector:

  • Digitalisation of services and modernisation of underlying IT infrastructure
  • Automatisation of administrative processes 
  • Increased focus on data privacy and management, e.g., GDPR
  • Selective privatisation of public services 
  • Increased focus on preventing money laundering and fraudulent activities 

 

Key challenges

We help both national and regional public institutions overcome their challenges, e.g.:

  • How to create a decision foundation for large investments, including both initial business cases and when the solution is more specific?
  • How to digitalise public service processes to improve efficiency and quality?
  • How to create a performance culture?
  • How to streamline IT governance and organisation? 

 

Our experience

Oleto Associates combines public sector industry expertise with traditional disciplines to help public sector institutions meet the demands of being an effective, cost-efficient and performance-oriented service provider.
