The Approach
The consultant initially spent a day with the WAVE Trust team to understand how developed their business case was. The organisation had a good understanding of the costs of the social case programme but had not defined the benefits and tied these to financial savings for Local Authorities. Therefore the focus was put on identifying ways to identify and quantify the benefits of ‘Pioneer Communities’.
The consultant also built a cost/benefit model that would take the data and provide them with analysis that would support their business case. The WAVE Trust discussed the proposed plan and it was written it up for future use.
