Further detail on report topic

On 19th June 2024 we provided the SPA Resources Committee Board with the Q4 2023/2024 update on the transformational benefits created to date in regards to Cashable, Officer Efficiency and Staff Efficiency savings. This report is to provide a summary of the progress in Q1 2024/25 and detail any movements since that report.  
 
To ensure appropriate scrutiny is applied in relation to any movement on benefits there is a full report taken to Police Scotland Change Board each month along with any relevant Change Requests.  

The following have been updated since the last report:

• Cashable Planned values have remained static at £16.739m. 
• Cashable Forecast values have reduced from £16.739m to £16.517m due to the reduction of £222.5k of 2024/25 cashable benefits for NICCS as the result of delays. 
• Cashable Actual values have remained static at £1.250m.
• Officer Efficiencies Planned have increased by 272k hours from 186k hours to 458k hours due to an Apr24 Change Request for CERP. 
• Officer Efficiencies Forecast have increased from 186k hours to 394k hours due to an increase of 272k hours from the Apr24 Change Request for CERP, and the reduction of 59k hours and 5k hours for COS Crime and COS Case forecasts respectively. 
• Officer Actual values have remained static at 13,863 hours.
• Staff Efficiencies Planned values have remained static at 198k hours. 
• Staff Efficiencies Forecast values have decreased from 198k hours to 140k hours due to the reduction of 57k hours and 1k hours for COS Crime and COS Case forecasts respectively.
• Staff Efficiencies Actual have remained static at 18,588 hours. 

Approach to benefits realisation and organisational design

As previously advised, work to review and enhance benefits realisation and the product set surrounding it is underway through both Operation Evolve workstream and also the revised model for policing activity.

The main focus here is the approach and mechanics to action organisational change from delivered benefits.

This will facilitate decision making and visibility around any changes in service design and/or resource that is realised following the deliver of transformation and the identified benefits. 

This work needs to be aligned with organisational vision, priorities, and overall resource management approach.

Work is progressing and the committee will be kept up to date as it develops and via the broader workstreams around the revised policing models.

Once prototypes have been developed it would be beneficial to sight members early for input.
