As demand for social care systems increases, there is a need to work with partners to ensure the best outcomes are achieved for system users. Outcomes that acknowledge the budgetary and recruitment pressures faced by the sector, moving beyond temporary agency workers as a short-term boost to system capacity to instead focus on the overall outputs the system delivers and the longer-term efficiencies that can be gained through wider outcomes-focused streams of works.
Our outcomes-based model allows us to deliver a fully managed end-to-end service, delivering efficiency and cost savings for your organisation. From initial diagnostic work through to the implementation of new technology and deployment of social workers, our category experts work with you to understand the support you require before developing a gold-standard specification that draws upon our successful track record across the sector.
With an outcomes-based project you only ever pay for what is delivered. When budgets are tight, managing outcomes is essential to ensuring quality and care is not compromised whilst achieving the maximum possible value for money in every pound spent throughout your project.

Our customer was a large city council in the North East of England who had identified issues across their Children’s Services department with growing demand in conjunction with internal staff retention challenges. The council approached Bloom to identify a supplier who could deliver an output-focussed managed service to increase the capacity of the social care system.
Following a mini competition, ICS Assessment Services (ICSA) were awarded the project and began to work on a tailored solution to specifically match the needs of the council.
Cardiff Council required a solution to manage an unprecedented demand in children’s social care cases. Employing an outcomes-based approach Bloom, via NEPRO, provided the Council a managed service and access to an extensive pre-accredited supply chain that could provide the relevant services at less cost.
