Performance & Continuous Improvement

We aim to achieve high levels of performance and will continue to provide excellent services for all our customers.
 
Performance management has been embedded into our day-to-day work and improvement planning activities.  Working closely with Local Authorities and other partners, we are constantly learning from experience as part of a process of continuous improvement.
 
These include the following:
  • Vision, values and corporate objectives
  • A robust financial framework and business plan
  • Best Value programme
  • Self-assessment against regulatory/compliance requirements
  • Self-assessment against Key Lines of Enquiry (KLOEs)
  • Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
  • Service Improvement Plan Framework (SIPs)
  • Staff appraisal system
  • Internal audit programme
  • Benchmarking (including HouseMark activities)
  • Complaints processes
  • Regular resident satisfaction surveys, including STATUS surveys
  • Modernised strategies across the organisation
  • Up to date policies and procedures and review programmes
  • Resident led inspection/audits
  • Staff surveys and feedback/suggestion schemes
  • Quality systems (e.g ISO 9001:2000)
With increased emphasis being placed upon Value for Money, organisations need to move beyond a pursuit of Challenge; Compare; Consult and Compete.  Whilst Best Value remains relevant, CHA also needs to set targets which drive forward continuous improvement throughout the year and from year to year on a continuous basis.
 
The performance management framework needs to be understood across the organisation so that everyone can challenge the status quo and occasion increased efficiency and effectiveness.
