Public Sector
The Public Sector is changing dramatically as it moves violently toward a comprehensive commissioning role in the light of the harshest spending cuts seen in a quarter of a century. With such a rapid redefinition of role it is now more important than ever for commissioners and advisors within the sector to fully understand how best to manage social, environmental and economic impact through the commissioning process.
In short the sector needs to swiftly re-skill and build its capacity to evaluate and negotiate short-term targets in tender documents and understand and assess the potential long-term impact arising from their commission decisions. Former front-line workers will find themselves increasingly operating in a mode of operation akin to that of an investor model and so must work to achieve the best the possible return from the limited resources they will be able to deploy.
In addition to the explicit impacts arising from the commissioning and investment function, public sector organisations will need to make every penny of spend count by considering how they operate as an organisation and the impact on their local community caused by corporate functions such as employment and supply decisions. This coupled with the pressure on public sector bodies to be at the forefront of sustainability and demonstrate a proactive approach to tackling climate change creates huge challenges for the future.
