“The government are committed to cutting the number of people in the public service, but they still want to maintain service standards.
This means that the public sector will have to make significant changes in the way work gets done. With significantly fewer people it will not be possible to maintain quality unless they reduce the number of things they do, improve their organisational structure and simplify the processes for getting work done.”
About The Public Sector Complexity Review
In March 2011, Warwick University and Simplicity launched the Global Simplicity Index. This is the first robust academic study to identify the true financial cost of complexity and the types of complexity that were most harmful to business success. The Global Simplicity Index focused on the 200 biggest companies in the world and identified that on average over 10% of profits were being lost to harmful complexity.
This study has now been extended to the public sector.
The results of the Public Sector Complexity Review are based on an on-line survey of several hundred public sector leaders and managers.
