What is the difference between Partnership and Consortium?
Improving Partnership Working in Wales Welsh Assembly Government 2004
Partnership*Collaboration between organisations or stakeholders that
have their own independent identities
*A real sense of shared purpose with clearly identified and jointly agreed objectives (a ‘partnership’ must be seeking to achieve specific outcomes or outputs that all agencies have agreed upon).
*Genuinely shared decision-making and joint ownership where each partner has an equal say over terms of reference, criteria, policy and distribution of resources (it does not exist where one organisation dominates the decision making process and others are merely there to be consulted).
*A formalised structure that is agreed by all partners at the outset (this may include, for example, an agreed statement of how the partnership operates, a partnership protocol, an agreed programme of meetings, a separate legal entity).
*Consortia
*A consortium is typically an alliance of organizations, usually with a common mission and purpose, that seeks to gain a benefit that could not be achieved independently.
