Referring to the diagram on the slide, in pairs imagine you are about to bid for a contract from this prime in nine months. Discuss and record: a. Which two individuals would you target your time on influencing?
b. Given you have limited resources but nine months to have an effect: i. What action would you take to influence the supply chain manager? ii. What measures would you use to chart you success / failure in influencing the supply chain manager?
b. Given limited resources, which factors do you prioritise learning about before you commit to a contract?
need to be a clear return on their efforts - so again, a clarity that you'll deliver the commercial rewards is essential. Data is king. This isn't just about getting results but about proving them. Something we've seen to not always be easy, and not always be honest.
This is not a sympathetic environment, and there's no covering for that. These are different terms (more competitive, higher-stakes, less tolerant) than many charities delivering public services are used to. What is difficult is the sudden nature of the change and that our sector has to a large extent been helpless to influence the way it happens. The potential lack of support for emerging organisations is a significant barrier to diversity of innovation, uservoice, and competition. Performance Management The process by which this organisation manages their supply chains is highly appropriate for an efficient, competitive market. The rule is this: the best performers get more business; the weakest get kicked off. There are two parts to this: 1. Picking the right providers to start with. This is key. This organisation don't base their decisions on which subcontractor submits the best tenders, recognising that tenders just indicate how good you are at writing, not at delivery. Instead they focus on site visits as the means to evaluate and decide on subcontractors. Within this of course sit certain stipulations on capacity etc. forced by the contract terms itself - i.e. PQQ measures on capacity and size. 2. Performance management requires sacking. This organisation are unrepentant in sacking underperforming organisations to make way for the higher performers to expand, or new organisations to be brought into the supply chain. Sacking (expensive and unpleasant) is obviously the last resort of a stepped process of performance management.
Consider the implications for your governance. Discuss and record on the flipcharts: a. What governance procedures would you want in place to manage performance risk in this regime? b. How would you need to reconfigure your resources (skills, capacity, information) to implement this governance approach? Be ready to feedback
In pairs discuss which opportunity you would accept A, B or C and state you reasons why. Be prepared to feedback on your reasoning.
