What the UK’s £144M ERP Transformation Can Teach U.S. Government Leaders

Avero GovTech Insights

What happens when one of the world’s largest ERP transformations is put under a public sector microscope?

In this GovTech Pod episode, Avero CEO Abhijit Verekar unpacks the United Kingdom’s £144M Workday initiative—an ambitious modernization effort driven by the Cabinet Office, Workday, and Cognizant—and what lessons it holds for U.S. state and local agencies.

From the importance of vendor alignment to the overlooked value of legacy integration and clear success criteria, AV breaks down what’s working, what’s risky, and why this project is far more than a software rollout.

💡 In this episode:

• What U.S. leaders should learn from the UK’s approach to procurement and change management
• Why "cloud-first" isn't the only strategy
• How misaligned expectations still derail major ERP programs
• What it takes to keep users, vendors, and leadership aligned across multiple agencies

Whether you’re managing a modernization project or planning one, this episode gives you the perspective to lead with clarity.
