Ffynnon pilot
Ffynnon is the Welsh Assembly Government’s Knowledge Management & Business Change Programme which aims to create a performance management community and culture across the public sector in Wales. The Ffynnon system is a web hosted performance, risk and project management system which is available to 30 stakeholders across Wales including all 22 Local Authorities.
APSE’s performance networks building maintenance group agreed to pilot the use of Ffynnon to report some indicators alongside other measures and to collect some data more frequently. Vale of Glamorgan agreed to supply their building maintenance data to use in the pilot and the paper (available on request) shows how APSE performance networks data can be used in conjunction with Ffynnon. The use of performance networks data in Ffynnon is optional for APSE performance networks members, the benefits of doing so include:
- Ability to compare APSE family group, Wales-only and UK wide averages and targets with other performance information displayed on Ffynnon
- Ability to collect and share APSE information in year (e.g. monthly, quarterly)
- Ability to collect base data, which can be used for a number of other measures and reduce duplication
- APSE data can be reported together with other performance information on a frequent basis
- There is potential to automatically submit the data collected via Ffynnon to APSE electronically each year
