Using the SPOT, public health teams and commissioners can:

  • compare spend and outcome measures against other local authorities including Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy (CIPFA) statistical neighbours
  • look at spend and outcome measures across a range of public health areas, as well as other local authority spending areas
  • identify programmes with outcomes significantly different to similar local authorities that may need more analysis
  • use the tool alongside return on investment and health economics tools
