Project: Public Service Feedback Governance

This project examines how public sector organisations gather, manage, prioritise, and respond to feedback from the people they serve. The objective is not to criticise individual organisations but to understand the mechanisms by which concerns, complaints, suggestions, and observations are translated into decisions, actions, and service improvements. Using the Project Health Control (PHC) methodology, the project seeks to map the journey of feedback from its initial submission through to analysis, decision-making, implementation, and closure. Particular attention is given to transparency, accountability, traceability, and evidence of improvement. The project will gather examples from a range of public bodies including government departments, regulators, local authorities, and public service providers. Findings will be documented through PHC Concerns, Actions, Deliverables, Reports, and Reviews to identify both effective practices and opportunities for improvement. Ultimately, the project aims to demonstrate how structured governance can strengthen public confidence by making feedback processes more visible, measurable, and outcome-focused.
