How we will do it

We will:

• evaluate our existing technology replacing it with new, up-to-date solutions where it is no longer working, and working closely with providers and industry experts to get the most out of the technology that is still useful 
• trial new technologies
• use new platforms that don’t require specialist knowledge to allow teams across the Council to produce new applications quickly
• work in the open and communicate our plans and activity throughout the Council
• rapidly test new innovations to understand if they are going to work before we formally take ideas forward
• deliver our Cyber Security Strategy that understands all the technology the Council is using (and not just what we traditionally support) 
• review each major service to understand the user needs, performance, costs and technology for each and implement changes as required
