Partnership Working

Partnerships are central to the planning, shaping and delivery of services. By recognising that all partnerships are unique in their makeup and objectives, we have developed a portfolio of approaches and services to suit individual circumstances. We:

  • help authorities and their partners establish an effective and enduring Local Area Agreement
  • offer tailored support to engage public, private, voluntary and community sector partners with government
  • build on existing partnership arrangements
  • place local ambitions within a national context
  • build the capacity and capability of all the partners.

We have developed a number of models to evaluate and improve partnership working including:

  • a partnership and stakeholder survey that identifies difficult areas and partner perceptions
  • a Local Strategic Partnerships peer challenge model with Warwick University Business School and the IDeA which helps them to gauge performance and identify areas for improvement
  • an extension of Price Waterhouse Coopers’ ‘Real Improvement, Real Time’ performance improvement programme to include LSP working
  • the OpenStrategy programme is a practical tool which makes it easier to identify, agree and deliver joint goals. The programme facilitates collaborative working by focusing on outcomes and not just outputs and includes a comprehensive element on community involvement.
