Bexley councilis to enter a major
business transformation programme which will support flexible
working and save it millions of pounds in operations
costs.
The programme - known as Bexley First - will see the vast
majority of council staff working from offices within a major
development on the current site of the Civic Offices in
Bexleyheath.
The council hopes the move will be completed by 2012. Bexley
will finance its headquarters and a major investment in IT through
the sale of several sites currently used for council offices.
It expects to save in the region of £50m over 25 years as a
result of the move and a switch to more efficient and flexible ways
of working.
