New strategy for Hollands Midden Safety Region
Challenge
The Hollands Midden Safety Region (VRHM) needed a new regional policy plan for 2024-2027, with a focus on further developing the safety region. The plan needed to be supported by stakeholders and relevant partners for effective implementation. The VRHM includes fire brigade, police and GHOR and works with municipalities on crisis management and firefighting in Hollands Midden.
Approach
- Strategy
- Co-creation
- Implementation
Our approach was to design the core elements of the policy plan together with the VRHM team through joint working sessions. We helped evaluate the results at various boards and ensured consolidation and attractive capture of the results. We worked in three phases: Society of 2023, Ambitions 2027 and Strategic roadmap and modus operandi.
Result
The result was a supported strategy that provided a roadmap for prioritised strategic initiatives and a design for an agile organisation and working method to realise the policy plan. The policy plan offered a good balance between operational tasks and realising new development tasks, and the translation to the organisation and working method ensured effective implementation. The project transformed VRHM's regional policy plan and strengthened crisis management and firefighting.
