Taskforce Toolkit

The Taskforce Toolkit is a practical guide to help APS taskforces through every stage of the taskforce lifecycle, whether you’re setting up, mid-operation, or winding down your taskforce.

• Scope: Understand the problem your taskforce has been set up to address and identify key deliverables.
• Governance: Keep the taskforce on track through clear and effective governance arrangements.
• Staffing and leadership: Establish the right fit and mix of taskforce staff.
• Project management: Plan and manage taskforce work, allocate sufficient time and resources.
• Stakeholder engagement: Actively engage with stakeholders to inform your work, gain new ideas and ensure you provide evidence-based advice.
• Taskforce administration: Ensure all corporate and administrative processes are in place.
• Closure and handover: Ensure the taskforce achieves its intended outcomes by planning for implementation and handover early on.
