The Strategy Unit works on complex challenges. Our services add most value where the need for innovation and clear thinking is high and the suitability of standard approaches is low.
So, in all cases, our support is tailored to the specific needs of the organisations and systems we work with.
Work with us
Working with us as a strategic partner
The Strategy Unit is born from the NHS and our team is committed to empowering NHS and other system partners to make wise, well-informed decisions that make a real and lasting difference to their local populations.
We can help you to address complex and enduring challenges in your system, and to conceive and realise new opportunities. We do not offer pre-packaged ‘solutions’ but work with systems on bespoke, locally appropriate approaches across the three core phases of transformation: diagnosis; development and delivery.
Our services span the innovation and improvement cycle. We help our customers understand challenges, design responses, improve delivery, and evaluate results. In short, we help them ‘Diagnose’, ‘Develop’ and ‘Deliver’.
| Organisations and systems need to: | So the Strategy Unit’s services include: | |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnose | Understand the nature, scale and likely evolution of population needs and service responses |
|
| Develop | Define strategic priorities, know what will deliver them and understand expected impacts |
|
| Deliver | Work in partnership to build capacity for delivery. Track implementation and evaluate effects |
