Whole system – partners and suppliers
'Commissioning is deciding how to use the total resource available in order to improve ci4zens’ outcomes in the most efficient, effec4ve and sustainable way'
Inputs · Finance · Capital · Workforce · Markets · Ci4zens · Communi4es
Outcomes · Community and place outcomes · Ci4zen outcomes and experience
Commissioning is the most efficient,
effecBve and sustainable route

WHAT ARE THE CHALLENGES?

Senior commissioners: challenges to implemen4ng cross-‐system ideas
Commissioners tell us that there are barriers to joined-‐up partnership working including: • Unbalanced budget impacts • Different language, structure and processes • Poli4cal context and cycles • A^tudes and rela4onships • Different measures, targets, funding Some approaches address the approach used, structures, measures, targets and funds. The Commissioning Academy brings stakeholders together to form the rela4onships and common understanding needed to deliver.
Prac4cal ac4on to address the challenges

Origins of the Commissioning Academy
• Originally part of the Civil Service Reform & Capabili4es Plan ▪ All parts of public sector, diverse market and communi4es ▪ Co-‐designed with input from 60+ commissioners ▪ About improving outcomes
• Set up by the Cabinet Office; delivered by a Concessionaire; steered by Office of Civil Society ▪ Public Service Transforma4on Academy
‘..give par4cipants a real boost of inspira4on, contacts and knowledge, which will help them to go back and transform their organisa4on’s commissioning prac4ce and ul4mately re-‐design how local services are delivered.’ Francis Maude, former Minister for the Cabinet Office and founder of the program

Academy format – not a trdi4onal training programme
• Five ‘academy days’ over five months, covering: ▪ Master classes, workshops, site visits, supplier engagement, market and behaviour shaping ▪ We share and debate latest ideas, policy and prac4cal experience ▪ ‘Steal with pride’ from people who’ve been there, done that ▪ Peer learning, peer coaching, tailored content every 4me ▪ Focus on prac4cal implementa4on via the hundred day plan
• Cohorts comprise: ▪ 16-‐40 senior commissioners and relevant stakeholders ▪ Sponsored by senior execu4ves ▪ All areas of public services, some4mes partners and providers ▪ Par4cipants apply for the programme ▪ We look for clear objec4ves, the ability to influence and implement change, and senior
sponsorship of their applica4on Customised and targeted for organisa4onal, area, and sector development

Field/Oliver model
• Need to maintain awareness and ac4ve monitoring of all elements
• Not a cycle – an interplay
• Time box analysis • Timeliness cri4cal • Iden4fy key areas
of focus for progress
• Not ‘neat and complete’
All at once...

Logic model
Adapted from ‘How to... understand and measure impact’ BeYer Care Fund Guidance -‐ SCIE
Inputs What resources are required for the interven4ons
IntervenBons What ac4vi4es are required to
use the inputs and achieve outputs
Outputs What are the expected
products of the process
Impact What is expected to happen long
axer the interven4on has
finished
Whole system outcomes Outcomes are benefits that are delivered as a result of a
service
Short Medium Long Term Term Term
e.g. .... ✓ S4mula4ng behaviour change ✓ Demand management ✓ Influencing others ✓ Collabora4ng ✓ Internal provision ✓ External provision ✓ De-‐commissioning

Fundamental ques4ons
1. What is the system (part of the system) we are inves4ga4ng? ▪ Understand key issues in delivery today
(what’s wrong – what might be causing that) 2. What’s the underlying purpose of the system? 3. What is the actual ac4vity to be delivered to achieve the underlying purpose?
▪ What are the op4ons for delivery of that ac4vity? ▪ What organisa4on and support services would enable delivery of that ac4vity? ▪ How could that ac4vity best be governed and managed?
4. How do we get there? 5. What have we learned?

Cheshire West & Chester – ‘floa4ng support’ housing
• Local authority with health services – payment by outcomes contract • A flexible service providing housing related support services (not care) to enable people to live
independently in the community. Support can be provided for a few weeks or months depending on the person’s needs.
• Experience and learning on Commissioning Academy led Jamaila Tausif to place engagement front and centre in process, from design to contract management.
• A man had lost his job, was the main carer for his au4s4c daughter, started drinking, and became depressed. The GP referred him to a number of services, and the child was referred to children’s services. This new service worked with him, six month later his daughter was no longer a child in need, he had new employment, and started working as a volunteer for the service – and is maintaining his mortgage in his home.
Person centred service generates beYer outcomes and public service savings

Surrey – reducing numbers of ‘NEET’ young people
• Commissioning approach to create an outcomes-‐based contract, using predic4ve modelling to target young people at risk of becoming NEET.
• 10 percent of Surrey popula4on is teenaged – 100,000. Rela4vely high rates of NEETS – ‘not in employment, educa4on, or training’.
• In one year more young people were supported into 16+ posi4ve des4na4on (college or work) than previous contract did in ten years.
• By end of three year commissioning cycle: ▪ Reduced NEETS by 60%, under 500 ▪ Reduced number of young people entering the criminal jus4ce system by 30% ▪ Increased rate of appren4ceships by 30 ▪ Reduc4on cost of services by 25%, without cu^ng frontline services. Reduced the number of
managers by 30%, and administrators by 50%.

Gloucestershire – learning disabili4es employment
• Employment strategy aimed at increasing the number of adults with learning disabili4es moving into employment.
• Two pilot-‐supported employment services, one externally commissioned and one in-‐house, which have informed its ‘make or buy’ decision.
• Since April 2013 more than 100 people with learning disabili4es have started work and the employment rate of adults with learning disabili4es is now 19 per cent compared to the na4onal average of 7 per cent and a star4ng posi4on in Gloucestershire of 5.9 per cent
• Employment is cri4cal to enabling people with learning disabili4es to live independent and valued lives. Engaging with employers is a tough nut to crack and it is important to gain their confidence.
• Gloucestershire uses employers to talk to other employers and to promote their good experience.
Massively difficult area; driving big personal and system-‐wide results

Digital marketplace from Government Digital Services
• User-‐focused commissioning digital services through Digital Marketplace • Defining suppliers of digital services – as well as public sector buyers – as users, designed simpler,
clearer, faster procurement and contracts • Reduced the 4me and effort required to procure digital services • 77 per cent more SMEs successful in winning contracts through the G-‐Cloud framework, 1,852
suppliers on framework, 87 per cent SMEs • Average savings of 20 per cent on previous contract arrangements • GDS par4cipated in wave four of the Commissioning Academy • Large-‐scale, central IT procurement had consistently failed to meet needs • Digital Marketplace is an online plasorm for:
▪ cloud technology and support e.g. web hos4ng and IT health checks ▪ people to work on projects e.g. technical architects, web designers ▪ physical data centre space for legacy systems
• Significantly faster and more flexible procurement process, fully OJEU compliant, broke dominance of few large suppliers
