Objectives. The key objective of the next phase is to improve the efficiency and performance of finance processes across DfT Group. The specific objectives are as follows: Determine a new operating model for finance across the DfT Group. Standardise and streamline financial processes as far as possible to achieve financial savings and greater efficiency of operations in the future.

A Business Unit not on shared services may find standardising processes a little harder. Business and management consultancy services. Financial management consultancy services.
