Meeting the standard
Advance delivers services that impact on people's lives.
We want to be transparent about how well we are doing in delivering those services and what our customers think about them.
On these pages you will find the most up to date information about our performance.
We also publish a Strategic Plan update and our Annual Accounts, here.
Customer Scorecard
Customers have identified some key areas they want us to report performance on. We produce a report on this each quarter so you can see how well we are doing. We share this information with customers at informal feedback sessions and at the Housing Customer Partnership meetings, as well as publishing it each quarter here.

Meeting the standard in Housing: The Tenant Satisfaction Measures
The Regulator of Social housing has introduced a new system for checking how well landlords are doing at delivering services.
As part of this, we have to measure and report performance against a set of 22 Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs).
We use this process to help us understand what is working well and where we need to improve.
Housing customers can use these measures to monitor how we are performing year to year, and to check how we compare to other providers.
You can see our current summary report on our performance against the TSM's here
You can see a copy of the Survey we sent to tenants here
We also produce an annual report for customers each year in September which provides more information about our performance. You can find the latest report here.
What are the Tenant Satisfaction Measures?
There are 22 measures for us to report on. Some of these are measures of Tenants’ perception – in other words, what YOU think about our services – which we collect through the Annual Customer Satisfaction Survey, and some are performance measures. The full list of measures is below.

Meeting the standard: Complaints
Each year, we have to produce a report about the complaints and compliments we have received and how well we have handled them for the Housing Ombudsman. The report covers complaints about our Housing and Support services.
Complaints are reviewed by the complaints panel every two months. The complaints panel involves a customer representative.
Read our latest Complaints Annual Report here.
See our latest Self-Assessment against the complaints code here.
The Housing Customer Partnership
The Housing Customer Partnership is a group of tenants who meet with Advance's Chief Executive and other managers every quarter to monitor and challenge how Advance is performing. Partnership members represent customers' experiences and have an input into key decisions. The Partnership sends a report to the Advance Board after each meeting.
You can read the minutes from the most recent Partnership meeting here.
