Our mission is to help all parts of the social system become outcomes-focussed, high-performing and user-centred. 

What we do - Outcomes-Based  Projects

​Latitude provides the analysis, project design, strategic advice and project support for successful outcomes-based projects.

Outcomes-Based Infrastructure​

Planning or building a new piece of community infrastructure, such as a library, leisure centre, aged care facility or even a master-planned community?
How can we ensure the investment in bricks and mortar delivers sustainable long-term improvements in social and health challenges? Embedding an outcomes framework into infrastructure projects can deliver real community benefits with low to no additional cost.
​
Latitude works with local governments and communities to embed an outcomes orientation in infrastructure and build long-lasting collaborations for social improvement.

Outcomes-Based Programs for Social Services

Does your organisation have a great social program that deserves to grow, but is not reaching its potential? Outcomes-based project contracting is a way to ensure programs deliver measured impacts on service users, but also provide alternative funding sources for social organisations. Organisations can boost their value to beneficiaries and society by shifting to an outcomes-orientation.

Latitude works with social service organisations to develop robust outcomes program proposals and structures that improve lives and deliver a path to sustainable funding.

Outcomes based contracts for Governments

Governments (local, state or federal) and the agencies that commission social services can benefit from moving to an 'outcomes-oriented' contracting system. This involves writing contracts that include outcomes measures, performance systems and incentives for improved outcomes. We are at the beginning of an exciting shift from output funding to outcomes funding.

Latitude works with governments that commission services to develop outcomes-based contracting that leads to higher impact services, continuous improvement and efficiency.
