Lessons learned from the Pilot

Senior leadership and engagement from all partners is essential. Clarity of outcomes sought between partners required from the outset. Joint working and co-design – requiring input, ideas and time commitment from as many partners as possible.  Develop a basis of gain/share agreements – benefits will accrue to different partners in different proportion to their investment. Whitehall input and co-design – invaluable in building departmental connections and whole system understanding
