Integrate
is a collaborative network of housing associations. Each housing
association serves its own customers but with the benefit of a greater
pool of resources, skills, processes and experiences. This will produce
greater benefits to both customers and Integrate partners.
The partnership
currently has approved consortium status. This means that Integrate has
satisfied the Welsh Assembly Government that it has the capability to
meet a range of
minimum requirements.
Integrate is committed to providing
quality and value for money. With perseverance the partnership will
achieve far more collectively than it could as eight housing
associations working in isolation.
Reducing costs and improving quality
-
Working with
shared partners
-
Better procurement
-
Improved supply chain management
-
Managing the development and maintenance programme to provide continuity of work
Integrate exists to encourage economies
of scale and improved programme management arrangements. It also
contributes to the cross-cutting themes of social inclusion,
sustainability and equal opportunities, while maintaining local
accountability and the identity and independence of the partners.
The major
objective of Integrate is to share expertise among members both in the
development process, and in areas of maintenance, housing management and
community development. Members will collectively seek economies and
improvements in these areas. |
