Introduction Welcome to our performance report for the third quarter of the 2017/18 financial year.
KPI targets are scrutinised by the Radian Residents’ Scrutiny Panel and HART (Housing Assets Review Team) and performance is compared through the HouseMark benchmarking club.
Highlights for the quarter are:
This report includes validated 2015/16 HouseMark Upper Quartile information drawn from the HouseMark system on 17.01.2017. We have benchmarked our performance against 26 other registered housing providers with more than 7,500 homes in South East England, South West England and London.
• • • •
Quality of Radian Direct remains high. Satisfaction with repairs continues to exceed target. Excellent arrears performance continued throughout the quarter. Tenant satisfaction remains strong and in the top decile of our peer group.
If you have any questions about this report, or any suggestions for improvements, please contact us using the information below.
However, some challenges for the quarter were: • We reviewed our complaints performance measures, which we hope will lead to improved results in quarter 4. • Combined void turnaround continues to be impacted by a specialist housing unit identified in quarter 2. • ASB satisfaction monitoring identified staff that required IT system training. Training has been implemented.

• Our weekly contact performance declined at the end of the quarter, however this relates to Radian's office shut-down over the Christmas period. All cases were updated prior to this. We expect performance to improve again in Q4. • At the end of the quarter 78.9% of those surveyed said that they were satisfied with how their ASB case was dealt with, this was against a target of 78.2%.

• All Net Current Arrears for Q3 are the same as last year which is an excellent achievement given that we now have over 600 customers in receipt of Universal Credit. Social and Affordable performance is better than Q3 16/17. • We have implemented a process to ensure that those who pay by direct debit have the payment date set as the payment due date, which prevents arrears forming due to incorrect dates. • We have pro-actively contacted customers who claim full Housing Benefit to encourage them to pay between Housing Benefit cycles to prepare them for Universal Credit. • The team are working hard to support customers moving onto Universal Credit and contact customers to offer advice and support when they make a claim. • Arrears processes are continually reviewed to improve performance.
