Integrated Planning and Reporting – the Delivery ProgramThe NSW Government has provided guidelines to assist councils in developing their Delivery Programs and Operational Plans. The Guidelines, aswell as the full legislation and a Manual, can be accessed via an Integrated Planning and Reporting link on the Department of Local Governmentwebsite (www.dlg.nsw.gov.au). The following “Essential Elements” are identified in the guidelines (pages 18 and 21):“What is the basic structure of the Delivery Program?3.2 The Delivery Program must directly address the objectives and strategies of the Community Strategic Plan and identify principal activities that council willundertake in response to the objectives and strategies.3.3 The Delivery Program must inform, and be informed by, the Resourcing Strategy.3.4 The Delivery Program must address the full range of council operations.3.5 The Delivery Program must allocate high level responsibilities for each action or set of actions.3.6 Financial estimates for the four year period must be included in the Delivery Program.What input should the community have in the development of the Delivery Program?3.7 Council must consider priorities and expected levels of service expressed by the community during the engagement process for the Community StrategicPlan when preparing its Delivery Program.3.8 The draft Delivery Program must be exhibited for public comment for a minimum of 28 days and public submissions must be accepted and consideredbefore the final program is adopted.What is the basic structure of the Operational Plan?3.13 The Operational Plan must be prepared as a sub-plan of the Delivery Program. It must directly address the actions outlined in the Delivery Program andidentify projects, programs or activities that Council will undertake within the financial year towards addressing these actions.3.14 The Operational Plan must allocate responsibilities for each project, program or activity.3.15 It must identify suitable measures to determine the effectiveness of the projects, programs and activities undertaken.3.16 The Operational Plan must include a detailed budget for the activities to be undertaken in that year.”Coffs Harbour City Council – 2012/2016 Delivery Program – 28 June 2012 Page 8
How to Read the Delivery Program and Operational PlanCouncil’s Delivery Program and Operational Plan have been structured to match the Themes, Objectives and Strategies of the Coffs Harbour 2030Community Strategic Plan.Up until now, Council’s financial framework of Budget Programs has been used as the foundation for the Delivery Program and Operational Plan.During 2011/2012, Council initiated an ongoing, organisation-wide Service Level Review that has effectively established a new, operationalframework. It identifies 41 Services that match community perceptions of what Council does. These are Council’s “principal activities”; they aredirectly aligned with Coffs Harbour 2030 and encompass all of the projects and ongoing tasks undertaken by Council.Council is already using this Service structure to engage with both the community (via the community survey) and the organisation in pursuingopportunities for improvement and optimising levels of service. This new Service framework also provides the foundation for the Delivery Programand Operational Plan from now on.Delivery ProgramSome Services play a role in implementing more than one strategy and are aligned accordingly. In a number of instances, however, activities relateto the general running of Council as an organisation (eg, Finance, Information Systems, Governance and Legal Services) rather than to a specific2030 goal. To accommodate these Programs and activities, an additional Theme – Our Council – has been established within the Delivery Program,with an additional objective and strategies that are consistent with Council’s organisational processes.Illustrated simply, the Delivery Program sets out the following:ThemeOutcomeObjective(and Objective Measure)Strategy(and Council’s identified role asProvider/Facilitator/Advocate)Council Service(and Responsible Officer)Coffs Harbour City Council – 2012/2016 Delivery Program – 28 June 2012 Page 9
