Are your Finance, Procurement, HR or Payroll systems outdated? Or have you moved to Cloud systems, but aren't maximising their full potential? Are you midway through your implementation and worried that you won't get your desired outcome? Maybe you lack the capacity or capabilities to do so? Are you facing increasing uncertainty, ever shifting priorities, the need to deliver fast paced change with less resources?
At Socitm Advisory, we are experts in transformation in local government. We have worked with many city, county, borough and district councils since our formation 7 years ago, and understand the importance of changing processes, organisation design and behaviours alongside technology to provide excellent services.

"During Covid-19, as classroom training was no longer a viable option, the team were able to deliver training and awareness which was very effective.
Socitm Advisory provided coaching and mentoring for the council's own staff, leaving a legacy of professionally experienced business change and project managers."
