RESULT AREAS 9 AND 10 THE RESULT AREAS March 2012. PM announced better public services initiative and, among other things, set 10 results for public sector to achieve over next 3 to 5 years. Two relevant to ICT:

RESULT AREA 9 “New Zealand businesses have a one-stop online shop for all government advice and support they need to run and grow their business.”

RESULT AREA 10 “New Zealanders can complete their transactions with the Government easily in a digital environment.”

FUNCTIONAL LEADERSHIP

MBIE: Procurement Functional Leader

DIA: Functional

Leader of Govt ICT

BPS reforms also entail a focus on better system leadership. In May 2012 Cabinet agreed that the State Services Commissioner be responsible for functional leadership: “leadership aimed at securing economies or efficiencies across departments, improving services or service delivery, developing expertise and capability across the Public Service, and ensuring business continuity”. It also agreed that the Commissioner may delegate this responsibility by appointing functional leaders within the Public Service.
