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 />
