The Government Property Agency (GPA)’s Chief Technology Officer Kean Jones talks about how GovWifi and shared networks are paving the way for workplace flexibility.
The key idea around ‘work from any building’ is to break the dependency on any one building, trusting and empowering civil servants to work in the place that is the most appropriate for that task, on that day. Departments shouldn’t need to rely on a particular office to offer their people services and neither should anyone need to go to a certain building in order to do their job.
The GPA is putting the customer first, making it easier for civil servants to do their work from the places they need to be, while also enabling departments to shrink or grow the amount of space they need. We’re also helping bring cross-government teams together in the workplace to respond to particular events.
