    Major glitch in Matrix as UK government projects watchdog rates shared services cluster red

    The UK government's Matrix shared services project, part of a £4.3 billion strategy to consolidate departments onto shared tech platforms, has been rated red by NISTA due to 'major issues' in planning and delivery.

Treasury and Education have delayed joining despite Cabinet Office claims their participation is mandatory.
