Agile working and property strategy

The Agile Agenda:

The strategy of portfolio consolidation based on disposal and renewal through new building investment is being severely tested in the current economic climate where disposal proceeds have receded along with cheap financing and revenue streams. Therefore strategy is now focussed on “squeezing the portfolio”, optimising what exists or cannot be exited, including subletting to the market, to outsourced suppliers or to charities, “mothballing” or de-servicing space (even demolition). There is also an increasing and irresistible movement within the public sector towards sharing space and resources through initiatives like Total Place.

It’s promoting a technology solution but the other HR / H&S issues etc have still to be addressed.

From localgov.tv:

This video looks at how Hampshire County Council has worked with Juniper Networks to implement a secure remote access solution called Hanstnet Passport.  The passport system has reduced the need for travel and substantially saved on office space by enabling staff to work from home and multiple office locations.
