The SFI Group worked in collaboration with the Social Procurement team at the Prime Minister's Office, which is responsible for improving the quality and effectiveness of outsourced social services by focusing on results and measurement. The process includes writing policy recommendations and then guiding a range of governmental social services in designing and implementing measurement systems. This includes working with the professional team defining desired outcomes and success metrics, and based on this, planning and implementing data collection and analysis tools. The goal of the project is to provide effective and accurate services that meet beneficiaries' needs, implement mechanisms that monitor progress, manage data-based dialogue, and initiate change when needed have been put in place.
So far, the process has been carried out for ten different social services across various government ministries, and five additional services are about to join.
