Abstract

This study explores the development of tailored logic models for the four challenge areas of the National Physical Laboratory: Advanced Manufacturing, Life Sciences and Health, Energy and Environment, and Security & Resilience. These areas align with the UK’s national priorities and government strategies, aiming to address pressing societal and economic needs. The existing logic model for the National Measurement System programme was found to be too broad in a previous case studies project, prompting the need for more specific models to better capture the unique dynamics and impacts of each challenge area. Through workshops conducted by Briscoe Advisory Limited in 2024, key internal stakeholders collaborated to map customer touchpoints and define expected outcomes. The methodology employed includes the use of meta-level logic models and theories of change which serve as foundational tools for visualising causal pathways and justifying programmatic interventions.
