3 Deliverology: Does it Deliver? Summary of research conducted by: Telfer School of Management University of Ottawa September 2016 Gregory Richards, MBA, Ph.D., FCMC Research sponsored by:

4 1 Deliverology in a nutshell Genesis Started in the UK with the Blair government (2001) Referred to as the Prime Minister s Delivery Unit Why? Difficulties encountered in turning policy declarations into measurable outcomes Well-staffed team focused on delivery Gather and analyze performance data Design routines to apply lessons learned Deliver on policy commitments

5 2 Implementations UK N.Lands 2007 UK Wales 2011 Albania 2015 Romania 2011 Ontario 2004 LA 2006 MD 2008 Chile 2010 Brazil 2011 UK 2001 Indonesia 2009 Malaysia 2009 Tanzania 2013 Australia 2003 Queensland 2004 Liberia 2009 Sierra Leone 2008 Rwanda 2008 South Africa 2010 Pakistan 2013 Kenya 2015 Adapted from London School of Economics Boston Consulting Group, 2015

6 3 Lessons learned: what works? 1. Sustained interest and involvement from the political level 2. Resources 3. Data: clean, credible, promotes collaboration 4. Routines that build a discipline around performance management 5. A permanent integrated structure focussed on performance 6. Adapt the methods to the context

7 4 Lessons learned: Challenges 1. Working towards the performance indicator instead of the objective; can lead to gaming behaviour 2. Silo effect 3. Cost 4. The philosophy of management

8 5 Conclusions-Does it Deliver? Criteria Evaluation Comments Coordination, focus, accountability Meet policy commitments Long term impact on the organization Yes Yes.but Can be positive Be careful of managing to the measure instead of to the outcome; monitor silo effects. Performance is at the departmental level, difficult to define the impact of the Delivery Unit. How are policy outcomes defined? Anticipate the management process changes required.

11 Deliverology: What Does it Mean? Deliverology is a concept originating in the UK and holds the adoptive organization accountable for delivering on planned goals and promises. Key considerations include: What are our priorities, goals, targets, expected results? How will we deliver upon these priorities, goals and targets? How will we know whether we are on track to succeed? What will we do when / if we are not on track? How will we demonstrate that intended outcomes and results have been achieved? Copyright Interis BDO

12 Policy Overview: Policy and Directive on Results Policy on Results Replaces the Policy on Management, Resources, Results and Structures (MRRS) and the Program Alignment Architecture (PAA) Focus is on the delivery of programs with the intent of attaining expected results across government Directive on Results Includes 5 appendices: Mandatory Procedures for Departmental Results Frameworks (DRF), Program Inventories (PI), Performance Information Profiles (PIPs) Mandatory Procedures for Evaluation Standard on Evaluation Standard on Mandatory Outcomes and Performance Indicators Standard on Tagging Copyright Interis BDO 2016 Policy on Results: Directive on Results: 12

13 Policy Overview: Government-wide Change Old MRRS Policy New Policy / Directive on Results RPP / DPR / PAA in need of a refresh Departmental Results Framework setting the stage for reporting to Parliament Inconsistent detail / information in submissions to central agencies Simplified templates for submissions to central agencies with a focus on results 5-year cycle for evaluations for all programs Targeted, risk-based evaluations Additional Ad Hoc reviews (SOR, DRAP, etc.) Periodic full reviews of departmental spending Lack of comparability of Internal Services efficiency Copyright Interis BDO 2016 Standard Internal Services Performance Indicators 13

14 Policy Overview: Key Players Central Agencies Departments / Agencies TBS Executive Director, Program Performance and Evaluation PCO Deputy Secretary to the Cabinet (Results and Delivery) Data Integration Group Central Innovation Hub Operations Cabinet Committee on Agenda, Results and Communications (ARC) chaired by PM Chair, Performance Measurement and Evaluation Committee (PMEC) at DM level Head of Performance Measurement (HoPM) at DG level Head of Evaluation (HoE) at DG level Results and Delivery Units (RDU) Copyright Interis BDO

15 Policy Overview: Key Outcomes Parliamentarians and Canadians can actually understand what departments are doing and what they are achieving Resources are allocated to areas where there is the most significant impact for Canadians Results frameworks that drive continuous improvement of policy, programs and service delivery (short- and long-term outcomes) All new spending supported by evidence (data traceability) and linked to results Greater alignment and coordination (horizontality) across departments and agencies More visible progress towards the government s political agenda Copyright Interis BDO

16 Policy Overview: How does it work? Stakeholders Tools and Measures Canadians Parliament Minister Senior Management Strategic Departmental Departmental Results Framework Program Inventory Core Responsibility Program Program Departmental Results and Performance Indicators Area of influence Description how programs influence Results Tagging DATA MANAGEMENT Manager Staff Programbased Performance Information Profile Performance Information Profile Program Outcomes Evaluations, external studies Copyright Interis BDO 2016 Area of control 16

17 while getting the policy right is hard, it is only 10 percent of the challenge. The other 90 percent is the blood, sweat, and tears of relentless implementation. Sir Michael Barber, The Origins and Practice of Delivery: Copyright Interis BDO Consulting

18 Implementation: Timeline Phase 1 Departments Phase 2 Departments 10 Departments identified as priority Fall 2016 Winter 2016 Spring 2017 Summer 2017 Fall 2017 Deadline of November 2017 Final Draft Here we are Phase 2 Departments creating Departmental Results Frameworks, Program Inventories, and Performance Information Profiles for all Programs Copyright Interis BDO

Medium - effort required in setting up questionnaire through various channels, consolidating and aggregating the results. O-7 Decreased texting-related collisions Number of textingrelated collisions relative to the total number of collisions causing injury or death. Number of collisions per million kilometers driven Ministry of Transportation and municipalities' databases Monthly / 3 years Query the Ministry of Transportation and municipalities' databases, looking for the types of collisions on accident reports. Baseline Value 30 per million kilometers driven 5 per million kilometers driven By the end of Year 3 of the campaign Green - 6 and less Yellow - more than 6 but less than 9 Red - 9 and over Project Lead, No-Texting campaign Reduction in the rate of collisions related to reported texting Based upon the collision report completed by the on-scene police officer or at the collision centre. Low - the overall queries are a known, simple calculation. The data is already captured through collision reports. Copyright Interis BDO
