10 Implementation plan<br />

10.1 Project governance and management<br />

If either of Options C (devolution to PHO) or D (new joint entity) are chosen the two boards will<br />

establish a subcommittee led by the two chairs to oversee the change. The subcommittee will<br />

appoint an individual to take over the current PHO CEO and DHB community GM roles and will<br />

oversee the development and implementation of a change plan.<br />

The subcommittee will also establish a Project Office under the direction of the newly<br />

established combined PHO CEO/GM community role to ensure best practice project<br />

management of the intended changes, including:<br />

task sequencing and critical path development<br />

reporting<br />

communications planning<br />

financial monitoring<br />

HR and legal input.<br />

The advisory group that helped to create this business case will be maintained to advice on<br />

aspects of the change programme.<br />

The change programme will be governed using project alliancing principles, including:<br />

transparent information sharing<br />

shared risk/gain<br />

integrated operational management of the change<br />

alignment around a set of mutually agreed goals<br />

agreed decision making processes<br />

shared project values.<br />

These principles will be agreed in a heads of agreement or alliance contract between the PHO<br />

and the DHB.<br />

10.2 Change management<br />

The key drivers for change are:<br />

Clinical sustainability: the current model of care in most health centres requires GP<br />

numbers we have not been able to achieve consistently on the Coast for at least five<br />

years, and leads to long waiting times for appointments (often > three weeks) and lack of<br />

continuity and consistency of care.<br />
