Central platforms fail when they standardise the wrong layer. Standardise the plumbing, the controls, and the interfaces; leave room for local service design where context genuinely differs. #Platforms #OperatingModel #PublicValue

Most transformation programmes don't have a tech problem. They have an operating model that still routes every decision through committees designed for a slower century. You can't platform-engineer your way out of that. #OperatingModel #Transformation
