Reading Shared Service Arrangement
Reading Borough Council (RBC) has successfully established a ground-breaking shared service arrangement with Hampshire County Council (HCC), built directly on the relationship formed from HCC�s work with RBC through the Improvement and Efficiency South East�s Major Framework on two high profile demonstration projects.
Key to the success of the shared service arrangement is the open and collaborative way in which the two authorities work together, which in itself supports the whole ethos of IESE. Underpinning the arrangement is a simple Protocol setting out the rationale going forward, which is embodied in a Management Arrangement for transparency.
