Rethinking requirements

Black Pear has developed methods of monitoring performance within and between organisations - offering accurate tracking and comparison techniques, particularly to gauge timely intervention

Benchmarking is one part of our monitoring toolkit, and we do this with carefully selected organisations that cover a wide range of service aspects - ensuring that comparisons are appropriate and in context against peer or world-class standards

Our approach to measurement includes unique metrics that reduce the risk of error, and increases the value of the information generated - allowing us to identify the true value and effectiveness of solutions

Equally important is the development of workable Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) - which we link to automatic financial adjustment and incentive schemes that simplify contract management

Our experience of performance measurement includes formal Best Value reviews in the public sector, as required by the Local Government Act 1999 - which reinforces our core approach of consult, compare, challenge and create excellence
