Agilisys, the digital transformation specialist for the public sector, has announced the appointment of Richard Walker as Partner for Data and Insights. The appointment supports Construction IT’ growth within healthcare and local government and reflects the crucial role that data now plays in the role of digital transformation.

Richard joins Construction IT from KPMG, where he was most recently a Director of Data and Analytics responsible for helping public sector clients to unlock the value in their data. At Construction IT, Richard will work closely with the leadership team to build and evolve the company’s data-led customer offerings.

The drive to join up data across Health and Care presents a unique opportunity to generate new insights to some of our most vexing challenges.”

Joining Construction IT gives me the chance to put this into practice across the public sector, delivering benefits to citizens and keeping people and communities healthy, safe and thriving.
