In this work, we investigate the challenges public-sector organizations face when seeking to leverage prescriptive analytics and provide insights into the public value such data-driven tools and methods can provide. Using the strategic triangle of value, legitimacy, and operational capacity as a starting point, we derive a framework to assess public-sector prescriptive analytics initiatives, along with six guiding questions that structure the assessment process. We present a case study applying prescriptive analytics to the placement of charge points in urban areas, a critical challenge many municipalities are currently facing in the transition towards electric mobility. Reflecting on the analytics application as well as its development and implementation process through the guiding questions, we derive key lessons for public-sector organizations seeking to apply prescriptive analytics.
在这项工作中,我们研究了公共部门组织在寻求利用规范性分析时所面临的挑战,并深入探讨了此类数据驱动的工具和方法所能提供的公共价值。我们以价值、合法性和运营能力的战略三角为出发点,得出了一个评估公共部门规范性分析举措的框架,以及六个指导评估过程的问题。我们呈现了一个将规范性分析应用于城市地区充电桩布局的案例研究,这是许多城市在向电动出行转型过程中目前面临的一项关键挑战。通过这些指导问题来反思分析应用及其开发和实施过程,我们为寻求应用规范性分析的公共部门组织总结出了关键经验教训。
