OUR FUTURE
All this will be done after consultation with our tenants and staff to ensure their needs are met.
Our commitment to the highest standards of governance extends to all areas of the organisation and in 2023 we reviewed our procurement processes and commenced a whole-of-organisation approach to drafting a procurement strategy. We reviewed how we currently run our procurement function across departments to ascertain what we are currently doing, what outcome we require and what this involves. We have liaised with the Housing Agency and will seek to appoint a procurement consultant
in the coming months. This work will also include the development of a contractor register and contract management policy for the whole organisation.
The changing environment in which AHBs now operate, includes the increase in legal, regulatory and financial requirements. This landscape requires new and innovative approaches to delivery. As
part of our Strategy we will continue to investigate collaboration opportunities with like minded organisations with a view to increasing our development capacity and providing a broader range of tenant services. As with all of our initiatives the well-being of our tenants will remain at the heart of any such plans and developments.
All these goals and ambitions are only achievable with the ongoing support of our external partners. We very much appreciate the support of the Department of Housing, Local Government
& Heritage (DHLGH), the HFA, the Housing Agency and all our local authority partners. We also thank the external consultants who support us in achieving our operational objectives.
