Housing Performance

This page provides a summary of Housing Performance Indicators, which monitor delivery of housing related services.

The Housing Business Plan sets out our operational and strategic tasks and targets for a period of three years, and how we will achieve them. It outlines our priorities and is updated annually.

Performance monitoring underpins the Business Plan in terms of reviewing our progress against the key tasks.

Progress is discussed monthly by the Housing Management Team and quarterly at the Housing Committee and the Policy and Performance Committee.

We are continually looking at ways to improve the service we offer to tenants and leaseholders. We do this by:

  • Setting and reviewing meaningful targets
  • Listening to the feedback we receive and learning from complaints. And sharing our changes through You Said, We Did
  • Addressing poor performance in a proactive way
  • Benchmarking our services against similar housing providers

The Housing department have introduced a suite of online surveys which can be accessed here. These are Customer Satisfaction surveys on completed by customers who have recently received a service from us. These then support the performance numbers provided above. 


Overall Satisfaction

Capturing tenant and leasehold satisfaction is very important as it allows us to identify our strengths and weaknesses and address them accordingly.

We carry out customer satisfactions in two different ways:

  1. Transactional surveys
  2. Perception surveys

Transactional Surveys

We encourage our tenants and leaseholders to complete surveys when they have requested or received a service from us.

At present, we conduct transactional surveys for the following services:

We ask our teams to encourage tenants and leaseholders to complete the surveys online, paper copies are available by request.

Perception Surveys

Every 2 years, we send out a survey called STAR (Survey of Tenants and Residents) to all tenants and leaseholders. It asks questions about the neighbourhoods they live in and how they feel about the service we provide as a whole. It also allows us to see if any changes made as a result of the previous STAR Survey have had an impact on customer satisfaction. The results feed in to our future plans for the service and allows us to benchmark against other housing providers via the use of HouseMark.
