EVERYWHERE - The explosion of devices which is creating a demand and expectation.

How do I change today’s reality of Bolton Staff chasing devices rather than connecting to key people……TO Seamlessly connecting people to people and people to applications easily

Business Drivers Reduction in property portfolio - £’s Reduction in sickness absenteeism - £’s Reduction in travel/environmental impact Improve staff retention/employee relations Improve Customer Service Family Friendly Promote flexible working/ “work-life balance” Maximise recruitment pool I Believe that – IP – “It’s Possible!” is the answer IP is the ENABLER  Remote Working in Bolton

Projects Elected members – connectivity from home Homeworking – pilot and subsequent rollout phases Contact Centre Upgrade Adult and Children’s Services – Hotdesking Mobile Working – Benefit Assessment Team “Benefit Bus” – visiting hard to reach customers Remote Property Reduction (Knowsley House) Anti Social Behaviour Team ( Unified Communications Pilot) I Believe that – IP – “It’s Possible!” is the answer IP is the ENABLER  Remote Working in Bolton

Define what your Communications Strategy/Plan is. Approach Relationship as a Strategic Business Decision Choose the right person to lead Establish a rigorous provider selection process (eg., references!) Clearly Define Expectations & Requirements (SLAs?) Measure performance and continuously communicate results Define clear “Performance” Measures with “teeth”! Think as ONE Company across multiple cultures Identify potential points of friction Communicate – Communicate - Communicate Recommendations: Lessons Learnt – so far!
