LESSONS LEARNED

The Tideway Legacy Programme learned several important lessons about valuing legacy programmes.

These could be very helpful for other major infrastructure projects seeking to conduct future social value assessments:

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

Set The Scope

Have a clear idea of what is to be evaluated and what should be left outside the scope of the exercise.

Think Smart

Define the programme/intervention to be valued in terms of specific, measurable and achievable (SMART) outcomes

Make It Provable

Ensure that the social value of the indicators related to a particular objective can be easily proved

Define The Process

Set up a process for data collection / monitoring / reporting so that the unit quantity for these outcomes can be easily determined

Be Prepared

Make a plan for social value assessment before you start the programme.

For more detail about each of these lessons learned, please see the full Technical Report.
