PIMMS TRANSFER Master Class TIM CORDY: FINAL SESSION • Critical Success Factors • Lessons learned • Links with other projects
PIMMS TRANSFER Master Class • Critical Success Factors • Lessons learned • Links with other projects
CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS • What are they? • In PIMMS: • Methodology • From the database • From the visits • In PIMMS TRANSFER
CSFs what are they? Business tool to identify • necessary • sufficient conditions for success In PIMMS and PIMMS TRANSFER, used as the basis of ‘transfer methodology’
PIMMS: Methodology1 DATABASE • “ consider the following possible CSFs”: • national/EU pilot; • local political leadership; • local technical leadership; • successful demonstration from elsewhere; • inspiration from another field; • partnership with others; • stakeholder engagement; • other • “consider which of these are significant in the success (or failure!) of each initiative and, if possible, to give the CSF a score, as follows: 'primary'=3; ‘necessary’=2; ‘sufficient’=1; ‘not relevant’=0”
PIMMS: Methodology1 OUTCOMES “The original list of possible CSFs and scoring system has largely been ignored and the identification of Critical Success Factors in the case studies was not extensive … most reports briefly described only one or two CSFs. In order to achieve a full understanding of criteria for a project’s success, it would be very useful for partners to provide a more thorough analysis of CSFs when reporting on study tours and visits.” Short list of CSFs, derived from a small sample of the best practice database entries

PIMMS: Methodology2 STUDY VISITS • System of forms to report outcomesbut not all partners completed the forms, not all thought about the CSFs • Progress Report system enabled Secretariat to ask for this infobut not all partners treated this seriously! • Final report enabled lead partner to ask for stronger databut this was partly ‘back-filled’
PIMMS: Methodology2 OUTCOMES • Final Progress Report ANNEXpartners listed: • 120 CSFs IDENTIFIED VIA VISITS • 37 CSFs INCORPORATED INTO ACTION PLANS • Final report:lead partner analysed the Annex data
PIMMS TRANSFER: what methodology • Database • Study Visits consider which of these are significant in the success (or failure!) of each initiative and, if possible, to give the CSF a score, as follows: 'primary'=3‘necessary’=2 ‘sufficient’=1 ‘not relevant’=0?
