Digital Strategy

Do

Overview

The Digital Transformation Project has sought to continue the Councils digital journey and in creating the Digital Strategy is laying the foundations for the next stage of development and implementation.

The Council is now equipped with knowledge and insight, with guidance and direction from the National programme and a Digital Strategy that sets the direction for the journey ahead.

To ensure the Strategy can be implemented resources will be put in place to continue implementation, supporting and enabling the whole organisation to thrive in the Digital Age.

The Strategy will be delivered through a set of activities as set out in the High-Level Implementation Plan. This includes the work required to build our organisational capability for digital, as well as initiatives for operational improvement,which will grow and change over time as digital becomes embedded in Service planning.

The Digital Implementation Plan will follow the guiding principles of the National Digital Strategy for Scotland with a collaborative and engaging approach to the implementation of the three key themes of lead, think and do digital, as set out through this document.

The approach will focus on sustainability and governance, communication and engagement, secure design and data security, ongoing review, measurement, including benefits realisation. With technology advancing continuously, the approach should also be agile and adaptive to meet the changing needs of our people, our citizens, and the world around us.
