Project Outputs
This domain helps you consider the deliverables or what is to be produced as a result of your project. These are the project outputs. Outputs can be singular or multiple and include any of the following: policy guideline(s), innovation, intervention, website or a tool.
Case study
“As we had early discussions to identify our project outputs within our team, we were able to plan resources required to support this. For example, we knew that one of our key outputs would be a website to be made freely available to all. However, as we engaged with our wider networks of stakeholders across different care homes, we realised that some also expressed interest in having a printed training resource which they could share with colleagues when hosting in-person workshops. This presented a challenge initially as we had not costed for the development of these printed materials. However, as we were still at an early stage of the project, we were able to apply for a small grant which helped accommodate these costs. Stakeholder involvement was invaluable to ensuring that our project outputs matched their needs. We will take this learning forward in future projects and consult with a range of stakeholders initially. This will help to support our project outputs to be available and accessible in formats which best fit the needs of those using them.”
