Written by Alistair Norman on Tuesday, 03 May 2005
Employing almost one million people (or around 780,000 WTE),the NHS is the biggest single employer in the country. Nationally, the Police service employs in excess of 250,000 staff. The Fire and Rescue Services provide a 24 hour a day, 365 days a year service to all areas of the country, attending thousands of incidents a year. Given the scale of these organisations, the pressures they work under, and the complex information needs they have in doing their jobs, it is no surprise that they have taken to information technology like ducks to water. And it is also no surprise that, as mobile technologies have become available and matured, that they have also adopted these tools in the pursuit of greater effectiveness, improved efficiency and increased flexibility.(2) Leave a Comment
