Leverage proven experience and solutions

Digital technology has not only changed the way we live and work, but heightened our expectations against a backlash of funding and resource pressures, maintaining and improving public services is becoming increasingly challenging.

We work with our customers to develop unique technology eco-systems, connecting infrastructure and complex applications from across national government departments to local public service organisations, so that you can slash the time it takes to turn ideas into better outcomes for citizens.

How we support various sectors

Central government

Providing a strong foundation to power your infrastructure, we help governments join up services with a focus on modernisation. Simplifying operations and maximising efficiencies, our emerging technologies unify systems, future-proofing them with easily scalable design. Our solutions help to keep citizens at the centre of service delivery. 

Regional and local governments are being empowered to make decisions that will have the greatest impact on their communities. This requires a shift to become more agile, responsive and citizen-centric. Modernising IT infrastructure can help with this transition, creating a strong foundation to solve issues and deliver services efficiently and sustainably, improving the lives of citizens.

The rapidly evolving digital world has brought about an increasingly challenging era in policing. Facing new pressures with crimes that demand specialist skills to investigate, technology needs to keep pace. Digital ‘transformation’ and ‘evolution’ are fundamental in leading forces to better protect the communities they serve, ensuring a modern IT environment is well equipped to tackle increasingly complex crimes.

Transformation though is not straightforward, in large part due to a combination of legacy debt, data silos, operational vulnerabilities, risk aversion and integration challenges etc. The coinciding growth in cybercrime, has meant forces are increasingly pressured to enhance their security and diligence towards evolving threats. 

Rising student and academic expectations and the emergence of connected, smart campuses means that technology has never been more critical for keeping your university or college competitive. However, with budget pressures and reduced funding, efficient solutions are vital in helping you to do more with less.

A unified view of your entire infrastructure is essential, stretching across public clouds, edge computing, networking, and high-performance research systems. HPE GreenLake provides a single platform that simplifies and seamlessly connects every aspect of your technology environment, ensuring security and efficiency across your organisation.

New legislation, rising patient expectations and a drive to modernise via new technology is motivating healthcare organisations to adapt and evolve. Data is the lifeblood of the healthcare sector, and a data-first modernisation strategy is required to keep up with the changing landscape. HPE GreenLake is the ideal foundation for digital modernisation. Providing an agile, scalable and flexible platform for on-premises and public cloud infrastructure, HPE GreenLake’s hybrid approach supports new business models and simplifies the management of large amounts of data.

Healthcare

Modernising IT across the sector

With a lot of legacy applications still supporting the healthcare system, it’s vital to create a solid and supportive foundation to ensure all workloads are consistently accessible. Taking a hybrid approach, HPE GreenLake helps to modernise IT infrastructures enabling seamless on-premises and public cloud access. HPE GreenLake simplifies data management, with automated back-office systems releasing staff to focus on innovation and driving change. A consumption-based model ensures that pressured budgets are optimised, eliminating the risk of overprovisioning, but scaling as needed. With sensitive data and electronic health records, a simple, reliable and user-friendly platform is essential to ensure the smooth running of the healthcare system.

Getting ready for AI

With daily advances in AI technology, getting ready to adopt more AI-led services and solutions is an important step. AI holds a significant potential and is already enhancing service delivery in some areas. To ensure the healthcare sector is ready, it’s essential to ensure a flexible, suitable IT infrastructure is already in place and familiar with users. HPE GreenLake uses AI and automation for managing back-office functions, as well as threat management and data tools, releasing teams to focus on driving delivery of services. Its hybrid approach to cloud ensures that workloads are placed in the appropriate environment, whether that’s on-premises or within a public cloud, offering consistent access to data wherever it is placed. Through HPE GreenLake, AI solutions have the potential to optimise services, reducing waiting times and managing patient waiting lists, helping understand the most critical cases and reducing the management burden, allowing doctors, nurses and caregivers to spend more time with patients.

Increasing resiliency in the healthcare IT system

Healthcare is a critical sector, with an abundance of sensitive data which is growing exponentially. The sector is also a significant target for cybercrime, with historic attacks putting lives at risk. Installing the most modern and effective technology can go a long way to defending against cyber attacks and minimising the risk of hardware failure. Improving risk management and implementing specific security measures will provide a robust security stance. 

The UK Government is considering a ban on all public bodies making ransomware payments. This would bring the NHS, as well as schools and local councils, into line with government departments. If paying a ransom is not permitted, organisations will need to ensure that they have a robust, well tested, recovery plan in place.

HPE GreenLake ensures the hybrid cloud is protected, with automated security measures and data protection solutions. AI and data management services ensure data is securely stored, accessed, processed, shared and protected, with secure remote access. In addition, the Zerto Cyber Resilience Vault, provides protection, recovery, and mobility for data and applications from edge to cloud.
