Central and local government
Driving business improvement with identity management
PA's objective, like yours, is to maximize the opportunities for government organizations to effectively manage the identity of citizens and staff alike. There are complex inter-relationships between the benefits offered by identity management, involving improvements to data integrity, greater efficiency and better customer service. Too often identity management is seen as a technology fix or product solution. Vendors often preach a one-size-fits-all approach but many government organizations are unique in their needs.
To ensure you get the right solution you need advice from independent identity management experts. Why? Because PA has the tools that allow us to work with your business and technology teams to specify a tailored solution that is right for you, saving the costs and embarrassment associated with reworking poor solutions. PA's implementation methodologies can also deliver significant benefits quickly by using existing procurement and technology platforms to sidestep the need for new systems.
Why are so many identity systems under-delivering and taking too long to emerge? Many consulting firms are aligned with software houses and are tempted to downplay options that reduce your implementation costs. Only a truly independent advisor, such as PA, can be trusted to give the best options due weight. PA does not form exclusive partnerships with suppliers. We do, however, employ consultants with hands-on experience of all aspects of identity management such as biometrics, business process design, IT architecture and sourcing.
Many consultancies in this market are technology-led. PA knows technology, but our focus is on driving business improvements through a combination of technology and business change. We have adopted this approach for local and central government clients throughout the world, including some of the most high profile projects.
