Local authorities are facing some of the most challenging times in modern history, with restructuring, diminished budgets and reduced staffing levels all adding to the pressures of delivering quality public services to their communities.

This is coupled with a growing need to collaborate more closely with other public bodies and local authorities, face unprecedented levels of public scrutiny, and raise additional income through commercial activity.
