There has been some slippage owing to the high number of requests for assistance for other types of our work experienced during the summer months together with pressures from officers taking summer holiday leave.  The programme consists of a wide range of types of food businesses which present varying risks in relation to food hygiene. The programme is being closely managed in a proactive way to ensure that those food premises which present a higher risk because of the type of food they produce (eg hospitals, restaurants, food manufacturers) and those that require additional interventions since their last programmed inspection are inspected first to ensure that the risks are controlled and that officers are satisfied that they present no risk to public health.    By following a statutory, risk based intervention programme, effective interventions within the first six months of  the financial year remove the need for additional inspections in some premises in the second half of the year.  This will be reflected when the programme is  re-calculated at the end of September.
 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Management strategies include monitoring of the figures weekly (instead of fortnightly) together with monitoring of individual officer performance. Alternative interventions are also to be put in place such as proactive inspections days, and task force planning to deal with other priorities.  We are confident that the programme will be achieved and that the interventions mentioned above will ensure that public health is not put at risk.

It was improtant to wait for the outcome of the NHS Future Forum work in response to the national listening exercise, and the government's response which was delivered in July 2011.  Following this, it was identified that there was greater importance for the Health and Wellbeing Board, which has now been described.  From this clarity, the Birmingham Shadow Board will now commence in September 2011 following EMT agreement.  Further progress has been made with 5 joint workshops led by Professor [NAME] from the University of Birmingham Health Services Management Centre.  These workshops consisted of leading GPs, Senior Councillors and other key stakeholders.  The outputs of these will help inform the development of the Health and Wellbeing Board.

In addition, each elected member has been asked for their views.  So far we have received 80 responses from across Birmingham.  The project group is attending a series of network meetings to raise awareness of the project and to encourage participation in this, the sounding out phase, and also the formal HealthWatch consultation at the end of the year.   The Sounding Out process will end on the 1st September 2011 and will culminate in a large scale event with a wide range of stakeholders.

New | [NAME] contract spend as a % of total spend | Public Service Excellence | Corporate Resources | Finance | Non contract spend  as a percentage of total spend | Quarterly | KPI | Percent |  | Percentage | Smaller is Better | 26 | 27.5 | ü | - | The target was reduced from 30% for 2010/11 to 20% for 2011/12.  The aim is for all directorates to achieve this by the end of March 2012.  Corporate Procurement Service runs regular compliance training sessions which remind Voyager users of correct procurement procedures.  The success of the training sessions, the dedicated support officers, and the work carried out by the Designated Directorate Compliance Officers and Directorate Procurement Group meetings is reflected in the continuous improvement in compliance figures since Voyager was launched and compliance figures monitored.  We have seen positive increases on a monthly basis.  Since the drive to increase compliance started in 2009, non-contract spend has reduced from 52% (Qtr1 2009/10) to 26% ([NAME]).  Measures taken to tackle areas of ‘under-achievement' have proved useful for promoting improved compliance.

CPS runs regular compliance training sessions which reminds Voyager users of correct procurement procedures.  Monthly compliance reports are produced and circulated to Designated Directorate Compliance Officers(DDCOs) who investigate non compliance and report back at regular Directorate Procurement Group (CPG) meetings (also attended by Accounts Payable).     The success of the training sessions, the dedicated support officers,  and the work carried out by the DDCOs and DPG is reflected in the continuous improvement in compliance figures since Voyager was launched and compliance figures monitored. The corporate figure is currently affected by grant payments, predominately in Children, [NAME] and Families, that are being moved to the new grant management system.  Once grants are removed from Voyager spend reports the figures will give a more accurate and more positive picture.
 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Positive increases month on month should be seen as  positive achievement not under achievement.  Since the drive to increase compliance started in 2009 the use of purchase orders has increased from 77% to 92% (comparison between Qt1 1 2009/10 and [NAME]).  However publishing 'under-achievement' has been a useful tool for promoting improved compliance.
