Surviving The Cuts

Public services are under huge financial pressure: there is far less money than there was but the need for services has not gone away. We all know that money spent on services now can save the taxpayer far more in the future but how to make the case in times of financial austerity?

There are five ways in which we can help providers:

1. By helping providers to identify the true value of their services (see measuring service effectiveness)
2. By helping providers to develop Payment by Results contract models that capture and price the future benefits of services
3. By helping providers to make their best case when tendering for new or existing services
4. By helping providers to make their best case in contract and price negotiations with commissioners
5. By helping providers to maximise their income from rental and other income sources (see revenue maximisation service)

There are three ways in which we can help commissioners

1. By helping commissioners to make strategic decisions on  what services to commission in the future (see commissioning support)
2. By helping commissioners in contract and price negotiations with suppliers
3. By helping commissioners develop Payment by Results contracts that capture and price the future benefits of service
4. By helping commissioners identify the true value of services (see measuring service effectiveness)

And of course we understand that in these times you may expect us to share some of the financial risk in doing things differently: we are happy to consider part outcome-based contracts.
