Strategic and Capital Development priorities and plans
The Strategic and Capital Development department is responsible for the management and delivery of the Trust’s major Capital Programme from planning through to commissioning and Post Project Evaluations (PPE) for all capital investment projects over £1,500, 000.
The department ensures the Trust wide review of strategic Capital Priorities and the subsequent development of robust business cases for submission to the Department of Health to secure the required funding.
Leading the Corporate Planning process is also another key role for the department. This process includes the development and publication of the Trust’s Corporate Plan and the development of the Trust Management Plan. These plans are essential for the continuous delivery of efficiency and service reform throughout the Trust.
Another key of the role of the Strategic and Capital Development department is to support our staff in a culture of continuous development and ultimately service improvement by developing and coordinating the Trust’s Leadership Conferences.
The Personal and Public Involvement process, engaging with a wide variety of key stakeholders across the Trust is led by the Strategic and Capital Development department. This process involves engaging with services users and carers, Trust User Forums, Patient Client Council, partner organisations and external bodies to ensure that Trust plans include their views.
The department ensures that the appropriate consultation and engagement processes are in place. This includes input from clinical staff and patients into the design development for new buildings. Furthermore, local representatives and the wider public throughout the Trust area are engaged when considering strategic directions such as those outlined in Delivering Together.
