PUBLIC SECTOR SUPPORT

The need for taking unnecessary Waste out of public services has never been greater. We can no longer ignore the longer-term environmental impact associated with the Carbon Footprint of the Waste in our public services.

​

As well as our private sector and voluntary sector work, Services Ltd work extensively with UK and international public sector organisations. Since our foundation in 1983 we have been involved in numerous public sector improvement initiatives. Our consultants understand the culture and language of the public sector and the major initiatives during public sector change and improvement in the UK and abroad. We offer a complete support service for public sector organisations wanting to improve and provide better service to the public. Our range of support covers all aspects of the transition process, covering Self-Assessment, process improvement, proceduralisation, implementation of ISO 9001:2008 and updating Quality Management Systems for the recent changes, stakeholder analysis, customer focus and employee surveys, Benchmarking, the EFQM Excellence Model, training needs analysis, senior management development and mentoring, ISO 14001, Six Sigma and Lean.

Lean Public Services

At the current time the need for taking unnecessary Waste out of public services has never been greater. Whilst we are facing falling public sector revenues due to the recession, we are simultaneously facing increasing demand for services. Furthermore, we can no longer ignore the longer-term environmental impact associated with the Carbon Footprint of the Waste in our public services. This is, however, an area where ‘the buyer must beware’. The Lean approach has fast become a bandwagon with numerous consultancies and training organisations wanting to jump on board. Many of these do not have the expertise or track record in the field, and many do not understand the public sector. There are also those who wish to over complicate or obscure the simplicity and transparency of the approach for commercial gain.
