Customer Scrutiny Panel

Our Customer Scutiny Panel is a group of customers who go out of their way to hold us to account for the services we provide.

Customer Scrutiny Panel

Our customers are the reason why we’re here. Listening to customers, and acting on your feedback, is crucial in helping us to improve what we do and how we do it. Our Customer Scrutiny Panel (CSP) is made up of a group of customers that makes sure the customer voice is heard and acted on, at every level of One Manchester.

What does the Customer Scrutiny Panel do?

The Customer Scrutiny Panel plays a central role in our governance structure. They meet regularly and carry out service reviews, putting together reports, giving constructive feedback and recommendations based on evidence. 

Having this in-depth look at our services makes sure that, where we need to improve, customer-focused solutions are always found, and positive changes are made. This is more important than ever this year, as we start to be assessed against the new Consumer Standards and Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs). 

As we shape our business for customers, using things such as strategies, policies and procedures, we ask for the views of our Customer Scrutiny Panel, to give us ideas from a customer perspective around how we can shape our thinking to suit customers better. You can find out more about this below. 

Our strategies

Since starting, our Customer Scrutiny Panel has had intensive training with a specialist independent organisation called Altair, and the opportunity to meet our Board and leadership team to find out more about how we are run, and they’ve also been giving us feedback on key strategies and policies including: Vulnerability, Value for Money, Communications, Sustainability and Customer Experience; 708 customer calls and written inquiries alongside One Manchester colleagues, as part of the ongoing review of our repairs service. 

Would you like to help shape our services?

We always welcome more customers who want to be involved! There are lots of different ways to have your say and give feedback on the services we provide. Visit the Customer Voice page to find out more about our groups and panels. 

You can also sign up to join our feedback group by letting your Neighbourhood Officer know that you want to give feedback during your Tenancy Experience visit.
