GMCA 970 Knowledge Transfer Partnership - Data Sharing Framework

The GM Information Strategy has identified a need for academic input to help design a business change tool that helps to embed the organisation's information sharing framework across Greater Manchester partners. The KTP will research and design how to most effectively create and sustain change of practice to support the embedding of an agreed framework across a city region. Informed by this research, the output will be tools for change that GMCA and other organisations can use to specifically implement the data sharing framework in their local practice and on a regional level. This support is needed due to: o Lack of extensive knowledge and understanding about sustaining business change across a city region and its information sharing practice. o Lack of capability to develop a sound model of implementation for the framework that can work for a range of organisations. o The need for insight into why past projects have not been able to secure lasting impact despite a clear appetite for a framework.
