> Requirements
» How are the LMATs currently structured and constituted, and what are the inefficiencies and issues?
» How can the LMATs add the most value in the future, in the light of proposed changes?
» Is there a sound business case that underpins the changes and what does this constitute?
> Objectives
1. To identify and analyse the staff and activities that currently encompass the LMATs.
2. To evaluate potential future ways of working and
3. The potential savings arising from changes to roles, structures and ways of working

Management Summary

RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
Management Summary - LMAT Baseline
Numbers: (source: LMAT Review – June 07)
> The total LMAT establishment is 94 with current in post headcount of 89, 4.51% of 1,972 headcount within the Groups, £3.4m total LMAT payroll cost to Department
> An EO and AO headcount of 56, primarily focused on transaction processing, costs £1.8m per annum
> At least £1m+ per annum, 29% of LMAT payroll costs of £3.4m p.a., is involved in managing invoice processing arising from c34,000 orders p.a. of which 75% (25,000) are for less than £1,000
> The average LMAT process cost is, therefore, c£29 per order
> The core Departmental spend is c£33bn of which only c£10bn is subject to LMAT oversight
Capability:
> Department has never achieved a stable population of qualified GMAs, the LMAT leaders
> Resource flexibility is diluted given the prevalence of small teams in LMATs and the difficulty in managing LMAT resources across the Department.
> Only 10 of the 28 HEO and SEOs are fully or partly qualified accountants (CCAB) limiting the practical delivery of value-added service
> Quality of service delivery not consistent and effectiveness of professional oversight variable
LMATs significantly resourced...
… but not effectively organised, focused and competent to deliver value
Inspiring Your Next Success!® 10 Company Confidential - Copyright 2007 Hitachi Consulting
RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
Management Summary - Findings
> LMATs undermined by:» insufficient resource of qualified accountants
» diversion of resources to manage the payment of invoices that are not compliant with the procurement process
» lack of consistent capability across the LMATs to participate in and to provide value-added services for decision support
> Appropriate toolsets not provided to the LMATs and budget managers» Programme Management, payroll and personnel systems are not interfaced or integrated. There are no
standard forecast, planning and programme management tools used across the Department.
> Lack of clarity between the line and the LMATs with regard to accountabilities and responsibilities for financial reporting and outturn forecasting of programme spend
> Non-compliance by the line with the prescribed procurement process. » Plan to centralise transaction processing in the shared service centre was abandoned in 2005 because of
non-compliance.
> The LMAT structure does not extend to all the Departments core Groups e.g. Thames Gateway, ERDF.
LMATs well designed, planned, piloted...
… but roll out not resourced and poorly implemented
Inspiring Your Next Success!® 11 Company Confidential - Copyright 2007 Hitachi Consulting
RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
Management Summary - Business Case for Change
> LMATs have, therefore:
» not achieved core objectives of:
• more effective and accurate information
• realisation of any significant efficiency and procurement savings
» not been able to develop beyond exercising basic financial controls and record keeping to provide added-value management and decision support information
• lack of discipline in the verification of balance sheet items
• misuse of the accruals process
» been required to support a non-compliant procurement process
• for example, obtaining evidence of procurement authorisation after goods and services have been delivered and the invoice received.
» become an unattractive working environment, lacking a clear career structure and difficult to attract high calibre civil service staff
Unsatisfactory and inefficient working arrangements…
…resulting in not meeting the core objectives
Inspiring Your Next Success!® 12 Company Confidential - Copyright 2007 Hitachi Consulting
RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
LMAT Review – Business Case for Change
> The cost of doing nothing is to continue:» not meeting the core objectives of the original LMAT strategy
» wasting resources of at least £1m p.a. on the LMATs supporting a non-compliant procurement process
> The business case for change constitutes the following elements:» Non-financial
• Improving the effectiveness of the LMATs to support the Department in:- Ensuring financial control and the quality of financial and management information- Maintaining the integrity of the balance sheet- Providing decision support and value-added services to the Group DGs
• Timeframe – targeting a completion date of 31/12/07 to provide the focus and urgency required to drive the programme of change and realise the benefits at the earliest opportunity
» Financial
• Gross headcount savings in the LMATs arising from centralisation of transaction processing of at least 29 FTEs costing £1m per annum
• Potential efficiency savings in Central Finance arising from reductions in Quality Assurance and reworking of submissions from the LMATs
• Potential additional cost of resources that may be required in the shared service centre
Inspiring Your Next Success!® 13 Company Confidential - Copyright 2007 Hitachi Consulting
RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
Management Summary - Centralisation Potential Savings
> The Smarter Business Process outline business case sets out the options for centralising transaction processing for invoicing currently undertaken by the LMATs.
» this business case concluded that the option with the largest saving is to “tackle compliance issues with centralising transactional processing” and
» used as a baseline for calculating savings in transaction processing the assumption that 23 EOs and 17 AOs costing £1.1m per annum are doing transaction processing full time.
> The LMAT review has identified that:
» Of the LMAT headcount of 89, 56 (30 EOs, 20 AOs and 6 contractors) costing c£1.8m p.a. are made available primarily for transaction processing,
» The LMAT resources absorbed by transaction processing amounts to 29 FTEs, costing £1m per annum, across all grades
> Additional resources may be required within the shared service centre focused on placing purchase orders, scanning paper invoices and processing invoices for payments. The additional resource requirements are dependent upon the design of the re-engineered processes and supporting technology.

Future Ways of Working - Design Principles
> Centrally managed core of LMAT finance specialists working in partnership with Group Management Teams
> Transactional activity from purchase ordering to invoice payment centralised within the Shared Service Centre
> LMATs focused upon the delivery of value-added financial and risk management services, supporting effective decision-making and able to respond flexibly to emerging business needs, for example
» Ensuring the accuracy, integrity and understanding of the balance sheet
» Facilitating the identification of financial pressures that may impact the delivery of a programme’s outcomes
» Engagement in the forecasting and management of programme resources beyond the current financial year
» Providing management information and appraisal techniques to facilitate the value for money management of resources
» Managing relationships in order to access and leverage knowledge expertise within the Group and Department.

Next Steps
Inspiring Your Next Success!® 21 Company Confidential - Copyright 2007 Hitachi Consulting
RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
Next Steps - Implementation RisksA restructuring and change programme for the LMATs must take account of:
1. Benefits not realised
» Failure to obtain the commitment of senior managers will limit the realisation of financial and performance benefits
» FSSD is unable to effectively interact with the line resulting in LMATs continuing to handle transaction processing enquiries
2. Reduction in performance while change is being effected
» Change implementation will potentially reduce the initial perceived performance of the LMAT because of staff uncertainty and weaknesses in existing LMAT management
3. Implementation perceived to have failed because stakeholder expectations not managed
» Expectations raised by the original roll-out have not been met. The upgrade of the LMATs further inflates expectations and undermines future LMAT credibility
Inspiring Your Next Success!® 22 Company Confidential - Copyright 2007 Hitachi Consulting
RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
Next Steps - Implementation Risks (contd)
4. Departments reputation impacted through mismanagement of employee relations
» Consultation with staff and the Trade Union Side, concerning potential redeployment and recruitment are not well managed
5. Change Programme fails through lack of resource and ability to integrate all the change initiatives
» Change Programme is not adequately and competently resourced
» The scale of change throughout the Dept. is not managed and inter-dependencies between initiatives are not identified
Inspiring Your Next Success!® 23 Company Confidential - Copyright 2007 Hitachi Consulting
RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
Management Summary - Next Steps
> Doing nothing is not an option because of the waste of resources within the LMATs and the requirement to improve basic financial controls.
> CLG Board support is sought to adopt the following LMAT restructuring proposals for change with a target completion date of 31 December 2007 for centralisation of transaction processing:
1. Transfer the primary reporting line for the LMATs to the DG Finance & Corporate Service Delivery, Hunada Nouss
2. Centralise invoice transaction processing in the shared service centre
3. Agree to the initiation of an implementation programme to enable the LMATs to focus on added-value services and to deliver the change
> Investment
» It is proposed that the preparation of the detailed plan including resource requirements and the availability of investment funding will be completed by the end of August. This opportunity will need to be taken forward on an invest-to-save basis. However by delivering at pace the Department will realise financial benefit before the end of the current financial year.
Further detail regarding the above recommendations is provided within the ensuing slides…

LMAT Review - Next Steps
2. Accelerate, as a matter of urgency, the current Smarter Business Process approach to centralising transaction processing
» the current approach is to tackle compliance issues with centralising transactional processing
» reframe the procurement process problem as
• “what must we do to transfer processing to the shared service centre as a matter of urgency, efficiently and effectively in compliance with a revised set of rules for accounts payable?”
» determine the financial risk exposures and how to mitigate and manage them, and
» determine the necessary and sufficient conditions to enable centralisation.

RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
Background to the Assignment> The Department is changing:
» Moving towards a strategic and policy focus with delivery through partners, supported by a slimmer, professional core able to deliver with reduced resources
> The LMATS were introduced in 2005/06, following a successful pilot. The current business perception is that although improvements have been made in terms of data integrity, the quality of the service being delivered by LMATs is not consistent and the primary focus remains on transaction processing rather than on the value-added services envisaged in the LMAT business case
> The Central Procurement Division Smarter Business Process outline business case for the centralisation of invoice processing assumes a baseline of LMAT transaction processing costs of £1.1m that requires validation
> The professionalisation of the Department’s financial capability continues to gather pace and is essential if it is to meet the future financial management challenges that will arise as a result of tight constraints on public expenditure

Current LMAT Analysis - Process Costs
> £1m+ per annum, 29% of LMAT payroll costs, absorbing 1/3rd of the FTEs across all the grades is involved in managing the procurement and invoice process.
> This is likely to be an understatement as the LMATs are not structured for efficient workload management and productivity is considered to be low.
> The Smarter Business Process Business case assumed an annual cost for transaction processing of £1.1m in respect of 40 EO/AOs, which is consistent with the results obtained from the activity analysis.
> Under utilisation is likely to be analysed to processes such as “other activities” and “training and personal development”.
> Average process cost per order = £29 (£1m/34,000)

Current LMAT Analysis - Skills and Competences
> As part of the Department’s Keegan action plan objective to develop “quality financial management in the line” there is a specific action to identify and mandate the required grades and qualifications for GMAs and LMAT staff and to restructure the LMATs and improve skills to provide stronger support to the line.
> Although all GMAs are now qualified accountants, those holding or studying for a recognised accounting qualification at the SEO/HEO grades is currently only 35% (10 out of 28) and are not universally pursuing an accounting qualification.
> However, the competence, i.e. the ability to deploy technical accounting skills and experience, even amongst the qualified accountants, is considered by the line to be insufficient to meet their needs for “value-added” services such as financial risk management, technical advice and guidance, investment appraisal, forecasting and other types of decision support.
Low level of accounting qualifications…
…impairs the capability to provide added-value services to the line

Current LMAT Analysis - Ways of Working
> People and Structure
» small team approach does not support resource flexibility and capability development and is inconsistent with the New Ways of Working being developed by the Department.
» time allocated to core activities is spread across the grades
• lack of a clear definition of roles and priorities
• AOs and EOs priority is completing the procurement and invoice paper-chase
> Process
» Delivery approach focused upon compliance with process rules and the LMAT Operations Manual rather than business requirement
• for example the management of the procurement process
» No consistent, shared timetable for the completion of key financial tasks and controlling the quality of the content
• For example the production of monthly reports and balance sheet reconciliations
> Systems
» The systems (SAP, spreadsheets, programme management, payroll and HR) do not provide a common and consistent view of data and need to be manually reconciled with each other.
Inefficiencies are inherent …
…in all aspects of current ways of working

Compliant Procurement Process
> A compliant procurement has the following process steps:
1. An authorised “request for procurement” (RFP) if not covered by a blanket order
2. A purchase order sent to the supplier (PO)
3. A goods received note (GRN) to evidence supply
4. A supplier invoice that matches with the RFP, PO and GRN.
> This process is applied to all procurements that are not done electronically or using the Government Procurement Card.
> 75% of procurements (c25,000 per annum) are for less than £1,000

Non-Compliant Procurement Process
> Non-compliance with the procurement process means that some or all of the required documentation (RFP, PO,GRN) is not available, with the consequence that the SAP accounting system will not accept the supplier invoice as valid and one that can be processed for payment.
> The majority of procurements (70%+) are non-compliant and for amounts less than £1,000.
> On receipt of a non-compliant invoice, the LMAT will seek to identify the business manager responsible for the procurement and who has the appropriate delegated authority.
> The missing documentation (RFP, PO, GRN) is then generated and processed to maintain the audit trail and enable the invoice to be cleared for payment.
> Operation of a non-compliant process is resource intensive for the LMATs, costing £1m+ per annum and arguably provides little, if any, internal control benefit.

LMAT Review - Current State - Issues
Issues are well understood and acknowledged but what to do next?
> LMATs well conceived, piloted, planned but poorly implemented:» Local Implementation Managers not appointed
» Resourced with personnel with insufficient skills and competencies
» Appropriate toolsets not provided to the budget managers and the LMATs
> Inefficiencies » Non-compliance with procurement process by the business
» Over-compliance by the LMATs
» LMATs not structured for efficient use of resources
» Responsibility for the prompt payment indicator is with the LMATs not the Line.

RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
LMAT Review - Current State - Issues
> Ineffectiveness
» LMATs delivering a poor service to Central Finance and the business
• Central Finance still required to retain resources to manage financial control and quality assure information received from the LMATs
• Inconsistent level of qualifications, skills and competencies across the LMATs
> Lack of Financial Control
» Lack of focus on basic financial controls e.g. balance sheet reconciliations, as evidenced by recent NAO reports
> Inadequate Scope
» The scope of the LMATs does not extend to some areas within the Department that are responsible for large programme budgets or the collection and redistribution of grants and rates. Such expenditure amounts to £23bn (69%) of the Department’s expenditure. These areas e.g. Local Government Finance, are supported by finance staff who have no accounting qualifications and

RESTRICTED - MANAGEMENT
LMAT Review - Current State - Issues
> Lack of appropriate toolsets
» There is no CLG consistent view of data as accounting, programme management, payroll and personnel systems are not interfaced or integrated. Manual reconciliations must be performed to reconcile between, for example payroll v personnel, accounting v programme management. Failures to keep the systems reconciled may result in misreporting of spend, errors in forecasting and having no control over commitments.
» Integrated applications for programme, financial and resource planning and forecasting
» Integration between HR and payroll systems
> Inadequate Performance Measurement & Management
» Apart from the prompt payment indicator, there are no evident LMAT key performance indicators

LMAT Review - Current State Implications of Issues
> Inadequate financial oversight by the DG Finance over all of the Department’s core expenditure of £33bn p.a.
> Managing controls over an ineffective procurement process absorbs 29% (29 FTEs) LMAT resources costing £1m per annum.
> Marginalised by the business – lack of finance input to “value-added services” policy development, business cases, submissions to Ministers
> Over Resourced & Under Skilled» More people than needed to do the wrong things right e.g. manage the P2P process
» GMAs need to be more finance directors than management accountants
» LMATs do not have the appropriate systems to facilitate delivery of value-added services.
> Resources not managed» No clear career structure for finance staff and the GMAs
» There is no structure to enable resource management across the LMATs.
> Risk of financial control failure
> Reputational Risk of failure of financial controls/procurement

Conclusions
> The LMAT strategy was not implemented
» An insufficient spread of financial trained and competent staff
» The LMATs and the line were not provided with the appropriate toolsets that are integrated with the accounting system to enable consistent planning, performance monitoring and forecasting.
> The LMATs are not meeting their core objectives of:
» Enhancing financial planning and control
» Realising efficiency gains
> Resources are being wasted on transaction processing without any understanding of the financial and non-financial risk exposures inherent in operating a non-compliant procurement process.
> The current LMATs do not have the capabilities to effect the changes required and provide added value service to the line.

Conclusions
> Risks of doing nothing
» Continued waste of resources at least £1m per annum
» Not providing basic financial management control
» Not providing decision support information
» Risk of financial control failure and NAO censure
