Information Strategy Managing Complexity for better decision making
Purposes of Information Strategy • To develop existing practice in such a way to support College becoming outstanding. • To provide information to support decision making at appropriate places in the organisation. • To provide a framework to manage organisational complexity and reduce administrative overhead.
Information for Stakeholders • Identify stakeholders • Corporation • Partners • Quality Assurance Agencies • Identify Relevant Performance Indicators • Presentation of information • Facilitate access to information sources • Dashboards • Printed / Electronic Reports
Information to Manage Operations • Evaluating performance based on lagging, external factors can lead to undesired optimising behaviours • Loses sight of the core values • Administratively complex • Expensive • Measuring performance using more timely measures where possible. • Actuality / Capability / Potentiality ratios • Actuality: How we are doing right now, with our existing resources • Capability: How we could be doing if we really worked at it, again under existing resource constraints. • Potentiality: How we could be doing if we had additional resources
Example: % Lessons Outstanding • Actuality: 20% • Capability: 30% • Operational Performance: 20 ÷ 30 = 67% • Potentiality: 40% • Strategic Development Performance: 30 ÷ 40 = 75% • Overall Performance: 20 ÷ 40 = 50%
Example: Attendance • Actuality: 87% • Capability: 92% • Operational Performance: 87 ÷ 92 = 94.5% • Potentiality: 95% • Strategic Development Performance: 92 ÷ 95 = 96.8% • Overall Performance: 87 ÷ 95 = 91%
Information for Strategic Planning • Operational Data, tracked over time. • External data • Modelling • Statistical Forecasting • What-If Analysis

Basis of decision making and action. • For one activity in the system provided, discuss what would constitute Data, Information and Knowledge in that context.
Determining measures of performance • Efficacy: How will you measure whether the activity has been carried out? • Effectiveness: How will you measure how well the activity has been performed? • Efficiency: How will you determine the work has made best use of the resources provided. • For your activity, answer each of the three E’s. For each, consider what might constitute Data, Information or Knowledge.
