How we will measure progress

The outcomes that we want to achieve for Solihull people and our borough are monitored through the Solihull Local Outcomes Framework and the Economic Strategy Scorecard. We will report on these outcomes publicly at least once a year. 

One of the key themes that emerged from the consultation on our draft Council Plan is that people want us to be clear about what we are going to do to achieve our ambitions, to hold ourselves accountable and to be transparent about our progress. 

For each key activity within our ambitions, we will set annual milestones – dates by which we expect to achieve important actions. Each quarter, the Council’s Corporate Leadership Team will review progress in achieving these milestones. 

Progress is scrutinised annually by councillors in public at the Resources and Delivering Value Scrutiny Board, typically in March. We will also consider whether we can make more frequent updates available and how best to do this. 

We will also refresh this plan annually to reflect progress and challenges in delivering our ambitions.
