Description

The group is now developing an ambitious change programme to drive quality and high levels of performance into the business. In the last year we responded to 90,000 responsive repairs which is just under 4 repairs per property. This is very high compared to high performing organisations. We have also seen a growth in high cost void works which have driven our average void cost up to £2200 per property.
The group is now developing an ambitious change programme to drive quality and high levels of performance into the business and the business must reduce the variable demand for re-let properties and responsive repairs. Bringing these two elements in line with top quartile performance would release approximately 10million into the business to reinvest in the quality of our existing stock.
In order to do this the business must reduce the variable demand for re-let properties and responsive repairs.

As a result WM Housing are seeking quotations for Operational Research support to enable us to clearly identify and achieve the aims as set out in the ITT.
