  4. Key Messages VCF sector doesn’t expect ‘special’ treatment- wants fair opportunity to set out local added value National and local charities are different- commissioners need to understand this Need more transparency and consistency from commissioners Commissioning is a range of processes- competitive tendering is one option in 1 part of this Sector needs to be better understood through systematic market analysis Support is needed to develop skills and competencies in sector (and commissioners) Commissioning for outcomes needs to be developed Align commissioning and funding processes Risk needs to be managed- not everything will work

  5. Key Findings New relationships, understanding, tools and processes are needed if public bodies are to successfully commission services with the voluntary, community and faith sectors City wide system of commissioning for outcomes should be supported- Outcome Star Adopt the Framework of principles for developing (and stimulating) market Commission and develop services based on consumer (and provider) insight and experience Develop skills and competencies across and within sector Use common procurement processes and documentation which enables the 3rd sector to sell their added value and USP- criteria need to measure this (increase contract value of £25k for triggering competitive tendering) Common principles and shared approach to managing risk Work in partnership to transform services and outcomes
