From decided reform to executed reform
Design, governance and steering of public reforms.
A reform can be decided and financed without the governance, the responsibilities and the steering its execution requires. GDC turns that ambition into a prioritised portfolio, an execution arrangement and measurable outcomes.
Initial diagnostic, a programme structured by phases and milestones, then optional support in the form of a Delivery Unit.
Digitalising the tax base and collection
Make the registers reliable, reconcile payments and strengthen revenue management.
When taxpayers, assets and payments are not linked in reliable reference data, the administration can neither measure its tax base correctly nor manage collection effectively.
Diagnostic, a territorial or functional pilot, then progressive roll-out. A variable fee may be considered where the gains are clearly measurable and verifiable.
Digital public services
Rethink journeys, digitalise services and simplify the relationship between government, citizens and businesses.
Procedures remain complex, services are fragmented across administrations, and the use of digital channels falls short of their potential. The service delivered, not the technology, must drive the modernisation.
Framing of the priority journeys, design, build in stages and measured adoption. The overall modernisation of systems and AI governance fall under the Sovereign Digital Transformation & Trusted AI offer.
Public performance & outcome management
Measure the quality of public action, accelerate decisions and durably improve the performance of services.
The results of public action are rarely measured against shared benchmarks: decisions are slow, reviews are missing, and the quality of the service delivered escapes management.
Diagnostic of the existing framework, design, set-up with the teams, then transfer. Each intervention can draw on a dedicated Delivery Unit: reform, revenue, digital services or performance unit.

Frequently asked questions
When should you bring GDC in?
As soon as a reform or a programme has been decided but its implementation is not yet organised; or when a programme under way is no longer progressing at the expected pace.
How does an engagement begin?
With a focused diagnostic: baseline, risks, expected outcomes and an initial scope of work, designed to reach a commitment decision quickly.
How does GDC work with public teams?
As an integrated team: each GDC expert works in an embedded pair with a public-sector manager, and capability building is assessed throughout the engagement.
How are results measured?
Each engagement defines its indicators from the framing stage: milestones met, coverage and collection rates, lead times, team autonomy, all tracked against the baseline.
What remains when GDC leaves?
The registers, the platforms, the documentation, the access rights, and trained and assessed teams that operate them. Handover readiness is validated by a test organised before closing.
Can an engagement be financed by a development partner?
Yes. GDC works on programmes financed by development partners and structures its deliverables and reporting to their requirements.
