Spirals Planning
Spirals has a proven track record when undertaking transformation work with Planning Authorities. Busy clients like these often like our direct, no-fuss approach to identifying areas for improvement and the ways to achieve this. They also like our one to one advice and support to see the job through. The Planning Service of a local authority usually has a significant profile within overall corporate performance. In many authorities, planning will also make a significant contribution to corporate income streams.
Spirals is an approved supplier of services to the Government’s Improvement and Development Agency (IDeA) and the Planning Advisory Service (PAS). When we work with planners we don’t go in with a set view of best practice. Our approach is to provide a framework and build capabilities to deliver a successful transformation project. Our work typically falls into five areas:
Diagnostic reviews to understanding what is currently working well and to identify opportunities to improve together with pragmatic options
Balancing the books by restructuring and developing more efficient delivery methods
Meeting standards and improvement targets
Improving the potential to generate income and business planning new opportunities for fee and income generation. One-to-one coaching and development to take people through the transformation process
