The Synergy Programme has been established to bring together the individual Department plans in line with the Government Business Service (GBS) published Shared Services Strategy for Government: this includes building a common operating model, Business Process Services, single technology, and single commercial strategy. The Synergy Programme comprises the following central Government Departments (Departments) and their ALBs. - Ministry of Justice (MoJ); - Department for Work and Pensions (DWP); - Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA); and - Home Office (HO). DWP are currently the lead contracting authority for The Synergy Programme. The prime driver of the Synergy Programme is to drive significant business transformation across four cluster Departments. The Synergy Programme, together with the successful suppliers will jointly develop a new Common Operating Model (COM) and introduce a new user-centric service including common data standards. The COM design will continually evolve throughout the five programme delivery phases. As a result, benefits will also continue to evolve over time. This will help identify additional benefits for the Programme and provide more robust data and narrative to justify the current benefits profile. To meet the objectives of the Synergy Programme it is envisaged that a cloud-based service will be adopted leveraging the capabilities offered by a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) ERP platform and associated technologies. Delivering value and efficiency across all transaction services, including the separation of technology from service centres. The COVID pandemic, and the challenging fiscal environment that has followed as a result, has heightened the drive and need for more effective and efficient delivery by all Government Departments. Key to this ambition will be the ability to capture, manage and improve the quality of Finance and HR (Human Resources) data to enable better informed decisions. The Synergy Programme will drive significant business transformation across four major Departments in support of this ambition. Additionally, the government has set out ambitious objectives to put sustainability at the heart of our government services.
