Shared Service Architecture Ltd

Shared Service Architects is a dynamic, research informed teaching company, focused on equipping politicians, board members, chief executives and senior managers in the public sector with the skills and knowledge to innovate and initiate successful collaborative transformation solutions, including shared services, across all the stages of the SSA Collaboration Journey Map (shown above). We understand that transforming public services is complex, especially when it seeks to weave the fabric of many different public sector organisations in different and new ways to deliver enhanced public value within austere times. We found that the people thrust into these roles often lacked the training and support to succeed. We set about developing a training and development programme to support them and accredit them as Collaborative Transformation Practitioners, or at postgraduate level, Collaborative Transformation Architects If you are unfamiliar with our work… • Over 3,000 leaders and senior managers have attended facilitation or taught sessions in the SSA collaborative transformation programmes. • Over 500 public sector organisations including FRSs, Local Government, NHS, Police, Housing, HE and FE are applying the SSA toolkits in their collaborative working. • Over 300 senior managers and leaders have achieved formal practitioner or architect recognition • Over 100 students have studied on the Postgraduate Certificate in Collaborative Transformation developed with Canterbury Christ Church University and CIPFA • Over 200 online tools, templates and techniques are available for use across the partners in collaborative transformation and shared services.
