Description
DWP Estates is embarking on the delivery of the Estates 2030 Strategy and Vision, which will incorporate a new Estates 2030 Strategic Pipeline Optimisation Programme (SPOP). The Estates 2030 Strategic Pipeline Optimisation Programme is a DWP Estates led strategic transformation programme that will support a series of future re-procurements and ensure alignment with the design and development of a new and evolving Target Operating Model, incorporating a review of the internal DWP Estates organisation and ways of working. This programme will undertake a comprehensive review of the significant and complex Estates strategic pipeline to ensure the supply chain is best organised and strategically placed to support the delivery of the DWP Estates 2030 strategy. This programme will help to identify opportunities for improvements and efficiencies in future service delivery across the Estates portfolio.
