OUR PROJECT


What are the best practices to sustain PCOR partnerships?
Although partnership sustainability has been identified as a key requirement for success in collaborative fields, there are no current best practices recommendations to achieve sustainability in patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) partnerships. This is a major technical issue in the PCOR field as sustainability is not only necessary to conduct long-term research studies but is critical to accomplishing the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute's (PCORI) strategic initiatives to disseminate research results and build long-lasting infrastructure to conduct PCOR. For a comprehensive definition of PCOR by PCORI, click here. 

The Partners interested in Partnership Sustainability (PiPS) Team will host a collaborative project focused on PCOR partnership sustainability. Through a four-phase project, the team will bring together representatives of the PCOR community to determine the priority topics concerning PCOR partnership sustainability and collectively identify the key themes and components that can promote sustainable partnerships.

Each phase of the project is designed to increasingly engage more members of the PCOR community. The collective formed through this conference will produce meaningful resources and guidelines reflective of real-world experiences that can be used to promote partnership sustainability as well as inform the development of sustainability methodological standards that can be applied at the onset of a PCOR project.

In Phase 1, the project team established the 10 member PCOR Sustainability Panel to identify priority topics in PCOR partnership sustainability over the course of three meetings in Denver, CO. In Phase 2, a Shared Learning Collaborative was formed to allow 30 participants from across the nation to share their thoughts on these priority topics in small group video conferences. In Phase 3, the PiPS Team is hosting the 2018 Partnership Sustainability Conference where attendees will discuss the emerging common themes in sustainability in order to collectively come to a consensus surrounding the themes in each priority topic in PCOR partnership sustainability. In Phase 4, breakout work groups comprised of conference participants will be formed. The objectives of these work groups will be to disseminate the lessons learned and translate the common themes into the beginnings of a toolkit designed to facilitate and promote PCOR partnership sustainability.

One anticipated outcome is the creation of a diverse community skilled in PCOR, committed to the topic of partnership sustainability, and knowledgeable on best practices in these relationships. Project-specific deliverables include publications in multiple forms and a sustainability toolkit that will be publicly disseminated. The engagement strategies employed throughout this project are expected to produce relevant, unbiased information that will be useful to the wider PCOR community, thereby facilitating dissemination efforts and increasing the usability, accessibility, and availability of this information. These outcomes are significant in their contributions toward establishing best practices methodology for partnership sustainability in PCOR.

This project was funded with a 2017 PCORI Engagement Award.
