December 2024 Board of Health Meeting - 2024 Annual Service Plan - Auxilary Q3 Status Report Information Report

This report provides a status summary for Intervention Work Plans (IWP) in the 2024 Annual Service Plan that were in active and in progress during Q3 (July 1 through September 30).

The project lead for each active IWP was asked to provide a progress report on their work. The status updates consisted of the following categories:

• On Target (the intervention is progressing at the planned pace)
• Variance (the intervention is behind the planned pace)
• Complete (the intervention has been completed)
• Deferred (current work on the intervention has been stopped – with potential to continue next year)
• Cancelled (the intervention will no longer occur this year)

If the intervention was identified as ‘Variance’, ‘Deferred’, or ‘Cancelled’ a reason was provided. In these cases, the most relevant reason was selected from the following list:

• Adjusted Program Priorities (program priority alterations resulted in changes to the IWP)
• Human Resource Issue (staffing circumstances resulted in changes to the IWP)
• Partnership Limitations (external partner(s) did not to meet their obligations)
• Public Health Emergency (a significant emergency resulted in changes to the IWP)
• Internal Resource Limitation (financial, material, or internal support limitations resulted in changes to the IWP)
• External Resource Limitation (External financial, material, or internal support limitations occurred with partnerships, collaborations, funding, or regulations)

It is important to note that reporting reflects a snapshot summary of progress made on interventions based on the predetermined milestones for the intervention for this quarter. This does not necessarily represent the amount or scope of work captured under each program. 

Operational Plan Status Summary

Part 1: External Community Facing Programs

Overall Quarterly Status Summary

There were 128 active external intervention workplans (IWP’s) in progress during Q3 2024. 108 (84%) of the IWP’s were reported to be on target by Project Leads. 15 workplans reported a variance, 2 were deferred, and 3 were marked as complete.

Figure 1 displays the percentage of interventions that were reported as on target, indicated a variance, deferred, or were completed.

Of the 128 interventions in progress in Q3, 17 (13%) experienced a variance from the target. Figure 2 provides a summary of the reasons for the variances and deferrals. 

Of the active interventions that were deferred or varied from the target, the most common reason given was related to the availability of human resources (35%).

Year to Date Progress Summary (External)

Program Quarterly Status Summary

All interventions are directly tied to programs and program objectives. Figure 3 displays a summary of the status updates for each WECHU program based on the number of interventions that were on target, varied from target, were completed, were deferred, or were cancelled. 

Part 2: Internal Corporate Programs

Overall Quarterly Status Summary 

There were 45 internal IWP’s in progress in Q3 2024 with 37 (82%) reporting on target. 5 workplans were completed, 1 was deferred, and 2 reported a variance.

Figure 4 displays the percentage of interventions that were on target, reported a variance, were deferred, or completed.

Of the 50 internal interventions in progress, 3 (7%) had a variance or were deferred.

Figure 5 provides a summary of the reasons for variances and deferrals.

Of the interventions that have a variance, the most common reason given was internal resource limitations (67%).
