Summary: The Innovation Delivery Model

1053 Words5 Pages

Rule exemption initiatives, focused on granting more discretionary authority to agencies or jurisdictions, can convincingly prove that the rules inhibit them from innovating and creating more value. The innovation delivery model, a novel approach to navigating the bureaucratic hurdles in municipal innovation, can provide a problem-centric, data-driven, cross-silo process with strong support from the political executive. Finally, behavioural insight approaches are built on the premise that science and evidence can support fewer and better rules that drive more innovative approaches. These approaches have not yet spread widely or matured fully, and therefore it is not possible to draw conclusions about their effectiveness or universal applicability. …show more content…

But if the case is just a little bit more complex, and the pros and cons of rules and procedures are slightly more nuanced, it is more helpful to look at the broader picture and consider the situation in light of the values in which the bureaucratic organisation is rooted. Cutting rules left and right may actually do more harm than good and does not address the real issue. Innovation is a delicate art that deserves careful attention, strong support and perseverance.

Based on what is known about rules and procedures on the one hand, and drivers of innovation on the other, it seems that a positive opportunity-oriented approach, focused on building capacity to solve social problems, is more promising than a negative obstacle-oriented approach, focused on rules and …show more content…

This could lead to investigating the value of developing performance frameworks that allow civil servants to focus on outcomes and to manage risks. It would also develop better knowledge about what skills are needed to take decisions in a context of uncertainty. It has taken almost the entire 20th century to construct robust, reliable and replicable models of bureaucratic organisation, to celebrate their merits and understand their limits. Government innovators and scholars around the world are now in the process of constructing and identifying models that address the undesirable outcomes associated with bureaucracy, while preserving and upholding its most important underlying

1) How do “the strain on institutional capacity and… the volume of rules affect implementation” of congressional laws? Congressional laws are intentionally crafted with a certain amount of ambiguity. Legislation intentionally lacks regulatory statutes as a means of allowing civil servants with the appropriate expertise to refine the rules required to achieve the broad goals outlined by a certain bill or legislative agenda. Essentially, the “operational details” of a policy initiative are delegated to the appropriate agency, guided by an outline of a program or initiative authorized by congressional legislation. As expected, an agency’s institutional capacity to develop and implement new rules/regulation varies based on several factors, including,

National governments exempted certain municipalities from national legislation and regulation in areas such as education, health care, childcare, social services, employment, trade and industry, the environment, and agriculture. The idea behind this initiative was that it would enable local government to come up with innovations that would lead to improvement. Consequently, these municipalities could perform an exemplary role in other areas. In an evaluation of the experiment in 2006, there was a net positive conclusion: “The experience of the FCEs suggests that granting relatively limited exemptions on a temporary basis to a sample of councils is an effective way of stimulating innovation and testing out new approaches at low cost and limited risk” (DCLG,
