City of Stoughton Budgeting for Outcomes Creating Purchasing Strategies

Deliverables

By the end of the meeting you should have:  6-9 purchasing strategies that are based on the factors on your cause and effect maps to be used as guidance by departments in preparing programmatic offers  Assignments for research to confirm evidence for factors and strategies  A plan and schedule for completing your RFR How We Will Get There 1. Looking at the cause and effect map, brainstorm individually all the possible strategies that evidence indicates would help achieve the outcome. A good technique to use is to start with “We’re looking for programs that…” Put them on post-its. (See more detail in the Purchasing Strategies handout) 2. Post all the post-its and as a group discuss the brainstormed strategies in terms of what you know about what evidence shows or from your professional experience. Group strategies as appropriate and name them. 3. Using sticky dots ask each person to identify which strategies they think are the most powerful. 4. Discuss the ranking and decide on the 6-9 strategies to propose. 5. Decide on a plan for how to gather research to improve your factors and strategies. This may include showing the maps and strategies to experts who can give feedback.
