| dct:title | Public value maximisation |
| dct:description | (Statement) Public value maximisation ensures that public services and solutions are designed and managed to deliver the greatest possible value to society, leveraging efficiency, collaboration, and accountability. |
| dct:description | (Rationale) Public value maximisation is crucial for aligning public services with societal needs and expectations. Under New Public Management (NPM), public value is maximised by improving service delivery efficiency and effectiveness through market-oriented reforms and performance measurement. New Public Governance (NPG) maximises public value by fostering collaboration, networks, and partnerships among various stakeholders, leveraging collective efforts to address complex societal issues. The Neo-Weberian State (NWS) enhances public value by modernising the state, ensuring professional, efficient, and citizen-friendly public institutions. By integrating these approaches, public value maximisation promotes a holistic and inclusive strategy for delivering high-quality public services that are responsive, efficient, and equitable. |
| dct:description | (Implications) To effectively implement Public value maximisation, organisations must adopt a multi-faceted approach that incorporates efficiency, collaboration, and accountability. Business processes should be designed to optimise resource utilisation, foster stakeholder engagement, and ensure transparency and accountability. Technically, solutions must support data-driven decision-making, real-time monitoring, and performance measurement to enhance efficiency. Collaborative platforms and networks should be established to facilitate stakeholder participation and the co-creation of public services. Continuous training and capacity-building initiatives are essential to equip public servants with the skills needed to deliver high-quality services. Legal and regulatory frameworks should be established to support and enforce public value maximisation, ensuring that public services are aligned with societal needs and expectations. |
