Local government

How to organise transformation, while tasks continue to pile up and budgets continue to shrink?

Transformation with societal benefits

The trend of regionalisation and economic clustering is challenging local governments to adopt an effective stance. At the same time, due to changes in their tasks (decentralisation), municipalities and Provincial authorities are increasingly being evaluated based on efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Both companies and the general public have a wide range of needs, which they can now express easier than ever before due to digitalisation. But they also expect local government to respond with equal speed and flexibility.

How can you organise the required transformation while remaining open to the public, and while tasks continue to pile up and budgets continue to shrink?

Smart cities & urban regions

Municipalities are able to benefit from each other's strengths by collaborating in smart urban regions. By working together, it will be easier to establish a sustainable competitive position based on economic development, social cohesion and the quality of the living environment. Who are the regional partners you can collaborate with?

Chain-based partnerships

Partnerships and economies of scale can help municipalities and provinces to improve their strategic capacities, reduce costs and increase professionalization. But this will change their role: the government will become a facilitator responsible for supply chain management. How can you include the stakeholders in your regional ecosystem?

Making an impact on society

New governments aim to improve quality and reduce costs, focus on making impact on society – e.g. sustainability and innovation – and report this. This will require agile organisations with changes in management, technology, processes, competencies, mindsets and behaviour. Does your organisation possess the right balance between flexibility, stability, transparency and legitimacy?
