Public Sector

Our ambition is to deliver meaningful results through a deep understanding of current challenges and of how the public sector works.

We aim to create security and drive transformative change

The public sector is leading the journey towards a more sustainable society and is facing several important challenges. The need for change is significant, while resources are limited.

  • The demographic development means that fewer people will need to support a larger population. Therefore, municipalities, regions and government agencies need to find new and more efficient ways of working to fulfill their responsibilities.
  • Digitalization and the development of artificial intelligence (AI) provide new opportunities, but also bring risks that need to be managed, such as information security, crime (e.g., welfare fraud), and physical and mental health.
  • The deteriorated security environment imposes extensive demands on society to strengthen defense and preparedness capabilities.

KPMG provides auditing and advisory services to all parts of the public sector. Our services are tailored to the specific needs of local and national government, and publicly owned organizations. The services aim to contribute to the necessary changes required to meet challenges, while creating a sense of security throughout the transformation process, both for the responsible organizations and their stakeholders.
