What is Co-Production?
Co-Production is….
The term Co-Production refers to a way of working, whereby
everybody works together on an equal basis to create a
service or come to a decision which works for them all.
It is built on the principle that those who use a service are
best placed to help design it.
Co-Production is….
“Co-production is a process that involves people in the design and,
crucially, in the delivery of the services they enjoy”
Co-Production can be….
• A description of how services rely on productive input from
users
• A way of recognising the input that people can make to the
design and delivery of services
• A transformation of design, delivery, management &
governance of services
Co-Production should….
• Simply ask service users how satisfied they are with services
• Engage front line staff, service users, the local community, and other
relevant partners to ask…
“What can we design and deliver together that will benefit our area?”
The other Co-Productive processes are…
• Co-Designing
Co-Design is….
• Service is designed collaboratively with service users, local residents,
service providers and professionals
• However it may still be delivered by professionals rather than on a
collaborative basis
Co-design vs Co-Production
The difference between co-design and co-production is that co-design
addresses the problem and a solution is identified whereas coproduction embeds the solution into reality. Co-Creation is identified as
the way in which both of these are addressed
McDougall, 2012.
The other Co-Productive processes are…
• Co-Delivery
Co-Delivery is….
• Service is delivered in collaboration with Service Users
• Allows the service to be answerable and accountable to the Service
Users and their needs

Does it work for the Service User?
“For Co-Production to work it doesn’t always require seeing the Bigger
Picture but it does require belief in the Bigger Picture and a willingness
to be part of that Bigger Picture”
“It works when we play our parts”
(Service User)
