A YORK IT company has finally clinched a £270 million deal that could generate extra jobs in the city and North Yorkshire and transform local government services for 750,000 people.
Agilisys, based in Jarvis House, has been formally approved by the Government to bring efficiencies to nine local councils over the next ten years. The company is set to double its workforce from 200 to 400.
City of York Council, North Yorkshire County Council and the county's seven district councils, have agreed to adopt Agilisys' three-phase plan, which will allow residents to use internet facilities to submit or study planning applications, renew library books, and even pay parking fines.
