The document discusses a funding opportunity called the Provider Development Innovation Fund, which will provide £600,000 to innovative, collaborative projects that deliver efficiencies and improved outcomes for local authorities and social care providers. Projects must generate quantifiable financial efficiencies for local authorities, improve practices and outcomes for service users. Applications are invited from partnerships of local authorities and voluntary/private/third sector providers and must be sponsored by at least one local authority. An independent evaluation will assess the selection process and impact of funded projects.

Editor's Notes
- The Provider Development project seeks to support the putting people first context of adult social care programme, which is summarised in Appendix A. The project has the objectives of: Introducing and embedding personalisation to enable service users to choose and exercise control over their care arrangements is fundamental to new commissioning relationships in the future, therefore the objectives of this project are: Providing funding to influence and shape the market to meet the diverse range of needs and abilities Enabling providers to develop collaborative ways of improving service quality, reduce costs and transfer efficiencies to their customers and workforce Supporting a range of innovative collaborative projects which focus on one or more of the keys areas of prevention, personalisation, dignity and safeguarding Delivering efficiencies and improved outcomes for people Stimulating new ways of working and cultural change for service providers, including Council providers of adult social care Enabling better understanding of the added value through collaborative working, key provider strengths and better service user knowledge and linkage/signposting between provider networks Evaluating the success of this approach to provider development Sharing the learning gained from all funded projects
- Outputs are the immediate results arising from interventions (“facts and figures”) Outcomes are the changes achieved by the interventions, net of additionality (would it have happened without project/programme intervention? – deadweight – is it replacing activity elsewhere? – displacement ) Impacts are the long term structural improvements in the personalisation of adult social care service provision as a result of interventions. Consequently these are less amenable to immediate measurement and attribution to activities
- Discussions on the exact nature of the evaluation are taking place but the key evaluation stages are likely to be as described below: Stage 1 – Project Initiation, evaluation of selection and development process and detailed evaluation design (Month Nov 09- Jan 10) Will commence with a project initiation meeting between representatives of the NE-IEP, the evaluators and key members of the Provider Development Innovation Fund (PDIF) to explore the requirements such as project management arrangements, stakeholder mapping, detailed sampling and identification of key focus (including case study design) and to finalise details of the administration of the evaluation. Stage 2 – Initiation of service innovation evaluations - Data Collection and ongoing formative analysis (Month Feb 10 – May 10) The evaluators will interview key stakeholders (service providers, commissioners and investors) to design the survey questionnaires to identify relevant policy, strategic and operational priorities around prevention, personalisation, dignity and safeguarding. These will be followed by engaging the wider communities through a series of initial engagement/consultation events to validate the emerging findings. Stage 3 – Programme level Cross-Pilot Workshops (Month Jul 10 – Oct 10) The evaluators will analysis of the data collection from Stages 1 and 2 and the summaries of these prepared as draft reports. There will be a number of workshops that seek to engage the participants of each case study (individual PDIF projects) in a co-productive process. The aim will be to validate the analysis of the case studies of each PDIF projects, to explore how the different PDIF projects relate to each other and thus to promote collaborative innovations by showing which innovations are active. The workshops will enable issues raised by various parts of the evaluation to be discussed in more depth. Stage 4 – Gap Analysis, Presentation(s) and Final Reporting (Nov 10 – Jan 11) The evaluators will undertake a final gap analysis during the last month of the year to validate the views emerging from the PDIF project in the co-production workshops and document the issues in detail. A final report will be produced detailing the findings in accordance with the evaluation brief. This report will be presented at a workshop/celebration event in March 2011.
