Best Value and Continuous Improvement. All the actions which require to be delivered to achieve the vision set out in the Community Plan and the SOA are subject to consideration of Best Value principles, particularly in maintaining a balance between the quality of the service delivered and the cost of delivery. Partners will strive to achieve continuous improvement in the performance of all their functions. We will ensure that there is improvement in the actual outcomes as well as improvement in the process of delivering services, applying the 4 ‘Es’: efficiency, effectiveness, economy and equal opportunities. This is captured in, and will be performance managed under, the national and local outcome ‘our public services are high quality, continually improving, efficient and responsive to local people’s needs’. Everything that the Inverclyde Alliance delivers aims to continually improve on what the Alliance as a partnership does, and also what each agency and organisation does. By promoting better efficiency, better partnership working, and reducing duplication of effort and spend, we should be continuously improving Inverclyde for all those who live in, work in and visit the area. Community Planning can add value to existing joint working by providing a local strategic framework, set out in this SOA and the Community Plan, and building a culture of co-operation and trust. Joint commissioning and procurement can also add value, and contribute to maximising returns at a local level, benefiting the area. This is assisted by increasing understanding, between all the partner agencies and the community, of the services delivered by each agency or organisation, about the challenges in delivering those services, whether they be regarding resources or particular issues, and about their ways of working. This all contributes to the modernisation and transformation of public services.
