The Barbican Arts Centre, the schools on the estate, the commercial properties, and St Giles Church are not within in the scope of this project\. Methodology The way in which the review is undertaken and completed is up to the discretion and preferences of the provider but, we would expect it to be evidence based and include at least the following: - detailed desktop study of current practice, processes, and procedures\. - analysis of relevant data including budgets, expenditure, complaints, and satisfaction data\. - interviews, surveys and/or focus groups\. - contact with both staff, residents, long leaseholders \(resident and non-resident\), and their respective representative bodies\. The level of stakeholder consultation is entirely up to the provider however, this must be adequate to support the findings of the review and the subsequent recommendations for proposed changes to structures, processes, and operational procedures\.
