Message 2: ‘self service’ is a potential solution, but the proposition must be right for you and the user
Realising Savings • In principle self service allows savings in your two biggest spending areas : • People: Possibly your biggest cost is paying salaries either directly or through a supplier • Estates: Providing the estates, infrastructure and support these people need to do their jobs is often the next biggest cost

Understanding your customers There is no point leading where service users can’t or won’t follow

Message 3: Partnerships and enlightened self interest is the future
Partners • Many organisations already recognise these important truths: • Its often a minority of heavy service users that consume the majority of your resource • These people are often the least able or willing to self-serve • Its often the same group of individuals and families in contact with multiple local service providers
Heavy service users typically have multiple service providers DWP Social Landlords Housing Provision State Benefits Social Services Education Emergency Housing Housing Benefit Local Authorities
They are also consumers in the private sector….. DWP Social Landlords Housing Provision State Benefits Social Services Phone/ internet Education Health TV/Sport/ Films Industry Emergency Housing Housing Benefit Local Authorities
Mutual Benefits • Organisations are increasingly recognising that: • There is mutual benefit in looking beyond your organisations narrow remit • No single organisation has the reach or resources to change the behaviour of this client group • Together you probably do have the ability to influence these heavy users and get them self serving
