The future of performance management is about integrated multi-agency collaboration. Local Area Agreements (LAA) are the latest vehicle for managing partnerships including block funding and joint-commissioning.

PerformancePlus^® facilitates each member of your partnership moving through the performance culture journey at a speed they are comfortable with, leveraging existing or new processes and performance frameworks.

This is a proven performance management solution, implemented for more Local Authorities and partnerships than any other.

The solution has clear benefits:

• This is the heart of a single, integrated performance management framework monitoring system that provides the partners with access to real-time, transparent and robust information to review and manage the LSP and LAA at any given point in time.
• Each organisation's relevant performance data (e.g. National Indicators, VFM Indicators, and CAA outcomes and targets) can be automatically connected to the LSP’s performance management and reporting with no duplication of data capture, transfer or inputting.
• Golden Threads can be followed either from Community Outcomes to LAA to service and personal plans and actions, or vice versa.
• Solution can cascade to any level within each partner for their internal performance management. PCT templates and support for Annual Health Check, Core Standards, KLOE, etc.

“Partnership working:

PerformancePlus^® helps us understand more about how things fit together and lets us share a wide range of performance information across the Council and with our partners.

PerformancePlus^® helps alignment within the Council and with partners, linking our overall priorities with actions we take every day on the ground (what the Audit Commission calls a 'golden thread'). We are so impressed by the results that every Officer will have access to it.
