Arm's Length Bodies

About this sector
Through its work with the Department of Health Arm's Length Bodies, Amtec understands the challenges faced by Executive Agencies, Non Departmental Public Bodies and similar organisations, in bridging the gap between departmental policy imperatives and the operational challenges of delivery.
Many ALBs have demonstrated innovation, whilst managing significant programmes of change, and there is much the wider public sector can learn from them.
Moving forward we believe that the sector faces a number of challenges:
  • Recent Cabinet guidance around improved Information Governance and Information Security.
  • Efficiency - examining alternative ways of working to achieve greater efficiencies and drive improvement.
  • Better procurement - through the supply chain and in the delivery of services.
  • Sustainable development - Action Planning to ensure sustainability is at the heart of an ALBs business decisions.
  • Performance management - ensuring effective, 'outcome based', metrics are at the heart of continuous improvement.
  • Business transformation - managing programmes of change and demonstrating the benefits being derived from new arrangements.
