Service Reviews with a difference



Local governments deliver a range of services to meet the needs and wants of their communities, including external services such as waste collection, childcare services, parks maintenance and development application processing.



Too many service reviews are undertaken to tick a box rather than to improve the service in a much more customer-centric way. Our approach addresses this shortcoming.

Why conduct a
Service Review



Local governments are under increasing financial pressure with an ever-widening gap between revenue and expenditure. At the same time, they are expected to be environmentally and socially responsible and provide a wide range of quality services. Our Service Review framework helps you clarify the needs of your community by using an evidence-based approach to assess how efficiently and effectively you are meeting those customer needs. We then use this information to assist you in determining what changes to make to service delivery that will provide benefits to all stakeholders and be financially sustainable.

Where is the customer in Service Reviews



Too many service reviews leave out the most critical component of any service... the customer. They focus too heavily on the efficient delivery of the service and leave out the human impact of how that service was indeed delivered. Our approach is to use Human Centred Design to place customers and employees at the centre of any review and provide a more rounded and valuable review that will align with your overarching customer experience strategy.
