He said the Central Agency Shared Services initiative by Treasury, the Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet and State Services Commission begins providing finance, human resources and information and communications technology services next Wednesday.
"It's a significant shift and we anticipate similar types of initiatives in other parts of the public sector," Dr Coleman says.
He said Treasury secretary Gabriel Makhlouf will talk about leadership in the state sector on Friday.
The government has signalled a big shake up in the state sector, including job losses.
Dr Coleman said savings have been made by making 305 non-deployable uniformed defence force staff reapply for their jobs.
This is out of a total of 14,000 employees.
"The achieved savings, and there will be genuine savings, are distributed back into the defence force," he said.
