Uxbridge, UK, 21st December, 2010 – Xerox has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with HM Government following a period of negotiation initiated by minister for the Cabinet Office, the Rt Hon. Francis Maude and led by the Cabinet Office’s Efficiency and Reform Group.
Xerox will apply its expertise in document management and business process outsourcing to achieve savings and efficiency gains as outlined in the agreement. A partner to Government for 35 years, Xerox is one of the first Tier 2 suppliers to sign an MoU and will continue to deliver services within its current framework of government contracts with departments such as the Department for Work and Pensions.
Alan Charnley, Managing Director, Xerox UK and Ireland, said, “We’re keen to continue playing a central role in the transformation of public services, which make a real difference to the lives of people in the U.K. every day. We value our relationship with U.K. Government and are committed to working collaboratively to help transform the way government works by providing enhanced services to U.K. citizens at a lower cost.”
