Business Transformation Services
Our
purpose – a brief introduction to why we are
here
Our University has ambitious plans to create a
new, business facing University centred on a consolidated campus in
High Wycombe. The transformation process began with the appointment
of a new Director and Chief Executive in January 2006 and has
continued with other key appointments. This was followed by a
significant programme of structural reorganisation, the achievement
of full University Title and the commencement of our campus
consolidation and development programme.
We have a long way to go to build the
University that we want to be in 2010 and beyond. In the autumn of
2007 Business Transformation Services was created to ensure that
the New University continues to transform in line with its
strategic objectives. We will provide business intelligence and
strategic planning support, will undertake business process reviews
in areas of key strategic risk and will oversee and support the
resulting business change.
The Business Plan
2008-2011 explains what we aim to achieve and how we
expect to do it. As Director of the Business Transformation Service
I am committed to supporting the strategic change objectives in any
and every way I can. I have been fortunate enough to be able to
assemble a team of business and planning analysts who have the kind
of experience and expertise that will be required to meet our own
aims and objectives and I know that they share my own
commitment.
We are now working closely with the Senior
Management Committee, members of Council and our own internal audit
service to target our main projects and initiatives towards the
highest priority areas in terms of risk and opportunity. We are
however happy to provide advice, facilitating, information or any
other support that you may require in meeting the transformation
objectives that you have in your own areas.
We look forward to working with
you,
Stephen Dewhurst
