REFRAME Project
The Council’s Design and Assurance
Review included an audit of the organisations capacity and approach
to transformational change and reform, policy, performance
management and monitoring and systems.
As a result, a new Design and Assurance function was implemented in
Oct 2019. This included a two-year temporary arrangement for
performance and systems support for Children, Education and Adult
services.
The REFRAME project was established in May 2021 to further review
those temporary arrangements.
The report outlines the proposals to implement a new model for
performance and systems functions for Children, Education and Adult
Services. These have been developed to replace the temporary
arrangements and complement the Council’s corporate and
directorate
performance functions.
