xantura engaged by CLG to research partnership data sharing

xantura selected by Communities and Local Government to research and develop an architecture and approach to improve data sharing across central, regional and local government.  

The Effective Partnership Data Management research study was tasked with examining four Local Strategic Partnership business areas and questions, below:

Strategic management: How could sharing of detailed disaggregate (unique citizen) data be used to support evidence based, citizen centred planning of service delivery?

Performance management: How could disaggregate data be used to reduce the performance reporting burden on local government agencies? What approaches should be used to drive more effective knowledge sharing and benchmarking across LSPs and partners?

Operational delivery: How could disaggregate data and intelligence be used to improve front line delivery of services?  Both in terms of improved service for customers and improve increased operational efficiencies?

Citizen engagement:  How could the solutions being proposed to improve service delivery more directly support the citizen empowerment agenda?

The study will report out at the end of March 2009
