Understanding Co-Production in Public Services
Co-production in public services involves a collaborative approach where all stakeholders work together on an equal basis to design and deliver services. This method focuses on building on people's existing capabilities, promoting reciprocity and mutual support, and blurring distinctions between professionals and service users. The Public Service Matrix illustrates different levels of involvement and collaboration between professionals, service users, and communities in service planning and delivery.

What do we mean by co-production?
Defining what is meant by co-production Co-production is a way of working, where everybody works together on an equal basis to create a service or come to a decision which works for them all. Co- production is a process that involves citizens in the design and delivery of services. PAGE 3

Three Levels of co-production Transformative equal Intermediate - two way Basic one way PAGE 10
Transformative: citizens are equal partners in all aspects of commissioning, design, service delivery and evaluation. This approach transforms power and control. Co-design, Co-produce, Co-deliver and An equal partnership regardless of diversity Co-production embedded in practice at every stage Led jointly by citizens and staff we All have a voice , are listened to and valued for their views All will advocate for each other Feedback provided is acted upon and details of actions are circulated Citizens delivering training for staff on co-production Attendance to team meetings/Cabinet Member/Management team meetings as equal contributors Social workers co-producing a package of care and support needs jointly with service users, families and carers. Commissioners procuring a contract with citizens involved throughout the decision making process. Co-commission PAGE 11
Intermediate: recognises what citizens can offer yet recognises that a power imbalance between citizens and professionals remains in place Expecting a two way relationship for example; sharing information and expecting to receive a response An invitations to meet and share views A consultation engagement activity: comment/survey/meeting Requesting citizens views in order to influence change Asking citizens to comment and make recommendations on a specific piece of work. Involving citizens in meetings but not as equals Citizen representation on Boards in order to influence discussions Representation on interview panels with decision regarding appointment being left with Professionals Mystery shopping by citizens to inform service delivery PAGE 12
Basic: acknowledges people's action as essential to the desired outcome. One way communication Influencing peoples views Tokenism Informing people (or telling people) Sharing details of something Giving information about an activity (no response required) Giving advice Signposting to services/information elsewhere Raising awareness PAGE 13
