Structure
CCTA's Headquarters were based in London at Riverwalk House, Vauxhall Bridge Road, SW1, since used by the . This housed the main Divisions with a satellite office in Norwich which focused on IS/IT Procurement - a function which had been taken over from HMSO (the Stationery Office) when CCTA was formed.
The office in Norwich was in the east of the city, off the former A47 (now A1042), just west of the present A47 interchange near the former St Andrew's Hospital. The site is now used by the OGC.
The HQ in London had four divisions:
- Project support - major IT programmes - software engineering
- Specialist support - evaluation of individual items of hardware and software
- Strategic Planning and Promotion - project management and office technology (hardware and office automation)
- Advance Technology - telecommunications and advanced technology (latest generation of computers)

Famous quotes containing the word structure:
“... the structure of our public morality crashed to earth. Above its grave a tombstone read, “Be tolerant—even of evil.” Logically the next step would be to say to our commonwealth’s criminals, “I disagree that it’s all right to rob and murder, but naturally I respect your opinion.” Tolerance is only complacence when it makes no distinction between right and wrong.”
—Sarah Patton Boyle, U.S. civil rights activist and author. The Desegregated Heart, part 2, ch. 2 (1962)
“Who says that fictions only and false hair
Become a verse? Is there in truth no beauty?
Is all good structure in a winding stair?
May no lines pass, except they do their duty
Not to a true, but painted chair?”
—George Herbert (1593–1633)
“I really do inhabit a system in which words are capable of shaking the entire structure of government, where words can prove mightier than ten military divisions.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
