This page directs commissioners to a range of helpful resources developed by us and external organisations, to help inform your strategic commissioning and market shaping activity. Additionally, we also offer commissioners guidance and share innovative ideas and example approaches from across the country to give insight into the fundamentals of strategic commissioning.
We do not prescribe a set model or way of doing things, but rather give authorities the support, guidance and dedicated time and space to understand the best way forward for them, according to their local needs and circumstances.
