Supporting Your Organisation:
Challenges in the Public Sector:
NHS organisations face increasing pressure to modernise, driven by standards such as the Data Security and Protection Toolkit and the Data Saves Lives Strategy. Yet, many organisations are having to cope with outdated systems and manual processes, which hinders collaboration and slows decision-making. Streamlining your finance operation and business processes via Integra Centros R25 enables transparent data sharing, crucial for today's NHS.
Delivering better services amidst Central Government demands, economic uncertainty and environmental concerns is a growing challenge for Local Government. To keep pace with public expectations and fiscal limitations, modernising efforts are no longer optional but vital. The UK’s 'Transforming for a Digital Future' strategy emphasises the urgency of building world-class digital capabilities to improve service delivery and reduce costs. Integra Centros R25 directly supports this by offering tools and features designed to support compliance changes, including the upcoming SEPA changes in Ireland.
