This report explores the critical importance of a robust control framework for UK public sector organisations, particularly considering major cloud-based system implementations and the imperative for cost reduction. Our recent survey reveals a significant gap between the effort invested in controls and the actual comfort derived from their effectiveness. Many organisations grapple with inefficient, manual, and layered controls that have accumulated over time.
This report advocates for a shift towards risk-based, automated control frameworks, highlighting that incorporating controls at the design stage of system implementations is far more cost-effective than retrofitting later. We present a practical framework and actionable steps for public sector leaders to modernise their control systems, emphasising the need for clear accountability, streamlined processes, and leveraging automation. By embracing these strategies, public sector organisations can achieve significant cost savings, enhance operational efficiency, and effectively manage risks.
