Our integrated toolset

At Socia we have developed an integrated toolset to help you improve the performance of partnerships of all kinds. Together these provide robust, objective analysis and a firm foundation for our work.

The foundations of successful partnering

All these tools aim to support organisations in a variety of partnering situations along the road to partnership by focusing management attention on the three fundamental components of partnering. These are:

Governance. Clarifying the purpose, accountabilities and decision making hierarchy in the partnership.

Operations. Ensuring that the partnership has the systems, processes, communications and skills necessary to operate effectively.

Behaviours. Demonstrating the collaborative leadership, joint working and willingness to operate constructively with others that are necessary to build positive partnering relationships.   

In Engineering Management magazine, we look in depth at how analytical tools can be used to address the problems of a failing partnership.
