Connexin
Rob Bullock CSO

3. A budget reduction of £280M by 2020
A design led approach underpinned by digital technology
• Identify new ways to address age old problems
• Understand the art of the possible of having live data
• How would new ways of working impact the way things are
done
• Citizen engagement
Technology is part of the solution but it is not the answer.
Strategic approach to
Service transformation

4. It was important to understand where they were and where they
wanted to be
3 strategic objectives:
• Improve outcomes for residents, service users & businesses
• Reduce the cost of service delivery
• Drive economic growth by establishing Newcastle as an
innovative, digital city and a place to do business
The creation of a single view of the how the city jigsaw fits together
and underpins delivering the city objectives
A digital narrative
For Newcastle

5. An outcome
Based approach
• Identified vertical based services
• Layering of data sets is key
• What other data sets could be
integrated
• How could data be shared
• What were the risks

13. 1
A horizontal approach within the council is critical
Technology can only do so much, people need to collaborate
A horizontal approach to service delivery and budgets underpins
joined up thinking and collaboration.
2 Partnerships are pivotal
Public, private and education sectors need to collaborate
New DPS frameworks are being created to aid procurement
3
Citizens want to be engaged even if the news is challenging
People want to see investment, a recent poll showed up to 25% of
people wanted to see their taxes invested in solutions for air quality,
street lighting and safety & congestion.
4
It’s an iterative process
Waterfall is outdated, a number of additional data sets were brought
to the project in addition to the initial scope including urban sprawl.
