Why do we need to think about this now?
• Public service improvement remains a key priority.
• The focus on delivering local outcomes will be a key focus in the CAA.
• The financial downturn will drive the efficiency agenda faster and further.
• The culture and sport sector need to better understand it and engage with it.

Strategic Commissioning What is it?…….
![Page 6: 28 April 2009 Understanding Strategic Commissioning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5516031b550346cf6f8b5c49/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Commissioning & Strategic Commissioning
• Strategic commissioning is the process the LSP goes through to deliver the Sustainable Community Strategy and the LAA.
• Commissioning is the application of the process at an operational level e.g. within a culture and sport service or individual services.
![Page 7: 28 April 2009 Understanding Strategic Commissioning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5516031b550346cf6f8b5c49/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Something old……..
• Providing better public services
• Good procurement
• Good performance management
![Page 8: 28 April 2009 Understanding Strategic Commissioning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5516031b550346cf6f8b5c49/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Something new…• Strategic partnership working & finding the
right delivery partner
• Defining outcomes based on evidenced need
• Managing contract performance to outputs and outcomes (not inputs)
• Stimulating the market particularly the third sector
• New opportunities for the sector
![Page 9: 28 April 2009 Understanding Strategic Commissioning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5516031b550346cf6f8b5c49/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Something borrowed……..
• It has its origins in the reform of the health service and changes in the education and social care sector
• Some of us have been commissioning on a small scale for some time e.g. artists
![Page 10: 28 April 2009 Understanding Strategic Commissioning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5516031b550346cf6f8b5c49/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Something “blue”
• Viewed by some as a continuation of the service externalisation debate
• It challenges traditional ways of working and “in house provision”
![Page 11: 28 April 2009 Understanding Strategic Commissioning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5516031b550346cf6f8b5c49/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Some of the complexities…..
• We are often the commissioner and the commissioned at the same time
• It may apply to service and facilities and may result in new service providers, new facilities or both in the same package
• The sector is at different levels of understanding because of their history
![Page 12: 28 April 2009 Understanding Strategic Commissioning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5516031b550346cf6f8b5c49/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How does it work ?Three key stages……• strategic planning (based on proper
assessment of need and resources available)
• procurement (including analysis of supply options and option appraisal )
• performance management. (including the measurement of outcomes and impact)

Opportunities for the sector
• We can improve what we offer by ensuring needs, outcomes, delivery partners and performance management are better aligned.
• We can generate more activity and resource by responding to other commissions e.g. health, older people, children & young people.
![Page 15: 28 April 2009 Understanding Strategic Commissioning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5516031b550346cf6f8b5c49/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Challenges for culture & sport• Needs assessment – we need to improve how we define
community need
• Resource allocation - major demands now on new capital and revenue expenditure
• Options appraisal – we need to improve how we identify the best provider/delivery option to meet the needs
• Procurement – we need to improve how we procure services to achieve outcomes and value for money
• Performance management and evaluation. – we need to improve how we measure our contribution to outcomes
• Market development and capacity building – we need to ensure there are a good range of delivery partners capable of providing services that achieve the desired outcomes

A word on the economy• Councils will want to make efficiency
savings……lets at least do it right
• Finding a range of delivery partners to work together may deliver these efficiency savings
• The big spenders will still need to deliver on big outcomes……you can help them
• But…… has the sector got the capacity and the will to rise to this challenge?
![Page 17: 28 April 2009 Understanding Strategic Commissioning](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5516031b550346cf6f8b5c49/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Help & support…..• Framework document to stimulate discussion
across the sector
• Guidance papers on • Need assessment• Option appraisal & procurement• Building third sector capacity
• Case studies
• Competencies
• Further resources next year
