PROBLEM SOLVINGDéjà vu

1 2

THE GOVTECH STORYThis comic strip shows two views of decision making and one of them is often what we see play out in the public sector.

Too often decisions are made with little knowledge and experience of the problem that a solution seeks to solve. We create a business case, get funding, implement it, and then often end up with a solution – which could be a product, policy, or service – that does not meet the needs of the end-user.

When solutions don’t work, they often have two problems:

There is little knowledge of the experiences of those affected by the problem.

There is little experimentation and testing done to ensure the solution achieves the desired outcomes before it’s implemented.

THE NZ GOVTECH ACCELERATOR IS AN ALTERNATIVE PROBLEM-SOLVING ROUTE. It is a 13-week government innovation programme that happens annually in Wellington. It takes projects and staff from government agencies who are tackling complex problems and applies innovation methodologies to create solutions that work. The programme aims to solve root-cause problems, facilitate collaboration, and upskill participants – driving better outcomes.

@CreativeHQ

THE NZ GOVTECH ACCELERATOR WORKS TO INCREASE KNOWLEDGE RAPIDLY, REMOVING THE RISK OF BUILDING THE WRONG SOLUTION, TO BETTER SERVE CITIZENS. New Zealand is being recognised as a global leader of public sector innovation, and has shown how innovative we can be during COVID-19. Our public sector was able to adapt quickly, proactively, and creatively. This represents an opportunity to double down on innovation to create a culture within government that empowers public servants to innovate.

Today, you’ll hear from the eight teams from across central and local government. They have worked hard with the impact on Aotearoa as their motivator. In these pitches you’ll hear plans for their project’s future. Demo Day is the beginning of the roadmap ahead, made possible by their agency’s commitment to citizen outcomes.

THANK YOU TO MINISTER NANAIA MAHUTA FOR HOSTING THE NZ GOVTECH DEMO DAY 2020.

INNOVATION BAROMETERCREATIVE HQ | NEW ZEALAND TRADE AND ENTERPRISE

Government agencies are striving to innovate, the problem they face is having the data and insights about their agency’s innovative ability. Creative HQ’s team has developed and run a pilot of the Innovation Barometer, a globally unique cross-government tool that measures an agency’s innovative ability. The Barometer is a year-on-year tool that highlights an agency’s strengths and areas for improvement enabling senior leaders to track progress over time and benchmark their agency against other entities. The tool provides rich data that is otherwise not available to agencies, allowing for improved strategic decision making.

GREYS AVEKĀINGA ORA

The current approach to social housing in NZ, often leaves people feeling isolated, with a lack of connection and community, resulting in poor social outcomes. The Kāinga Ora team is creating a flexible and innovative digital platform and framework to implement inclusive, connected and thriving communities around Kāinga Ora developments, starting with 139 Greys Ave. The platform incentivises community engagement using time banking and virtual token currency to activate communal spaces, encourage participation and most importantly, provide the opportunity for the whole community to contribute.

PROCUREMENT FOR IMPACTCOUNCILS FROM THE WELLINGTON REGION

Councils in the Wellington region want to use procurement as a tool for socio-economic good for our local communities. However, there are systemic barriers that lockout diverse suppliers from obtaining council contracts. The Procurement for Impact team has created Te Upoko o Te Ika a Māui commitment, an alliance between councils in the region to take a shared approach to supplier diversity by increasing spend with Māori, Pasifika and social enterprises through targets. This will multiply the impact of council spend on our communities.

Team members: Warren Smith, Sarah Tunnicliffe, Cheryl Eden, Jenni Hamilton, Te Puritanga Jefferies, Christian Tanner

ONE WELLINGTONWELLINGTON CITY COUNCIL

We live in a digital age where online services are the norm. As the public sector shifts more towards digital, we need to create channels of inclusion for people who are at risk of being left behind. The One Wellington team wants to bridge the digital divide with local access points supported by concierge services, to empower people to access the Council services and information they need to participate in their communities.

THE WELLBEING PROTOCOLTHE DAO.AGENCY

Current philanthropic systems govern from a top-down approach which often leads to ineffective spend that results in disempowering, fragmented efforts to increase community wellbeing. The Wellbeing Protocol is creating a local currency platform that will allow communities to make collective decisions to increase the communities wellbeing by implementing targeted philanthropic spending. The solution will empower communities to solve their own problems.
