Planning is a key part of our service. We work with customers to assess their needs, develop the best options, which is not always full Cloud straight away, and to plan the project from start to finish, ensuring that they and their staff are involved at all stages.
We support customers in the implementation of change management and monitoring to ensure the systems are achieving their stated aims and objectives and to improve performance. We also help by undertaking full evaluations of new services or schemes. - Planning service works with specific services
