A new Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk
Management (FCERM) staffing structure is required after a Dorset
Council change of direction with shared partnership line
management.
Formation of an independent BCP Centre of Excellence is
recommended, building on existing reputation and allowing delivery
of collaborative working opportunities.
The business model changes to FCERM over the last couple of years
have demonstrated the ability to deliver more projects, increase
income, attract quality staff and reduce reliance on consultancy
support. Not only does this direction achieve more on the ground,
it will result in longer term savings.
