Improvement Projects

 

The refreshed Aberdeen City Local Outcome Improvement Plan (LOIP) was approved by Community Planning Aberdeen Board on 26 Feb 2019. It introduces 15 Stretch Outcomes to be delivered by 2026 and 125 shorter term improvement projects, the majority of which aim to be delivered by 2021.  On 1 May 2019, the CPA Board agreed to take a phased approach to the initiation of the LOIP improvement projects over the next three years and approved the CPA Improvement Programme 2019-21. 

See below Improvement Project Charters for the projects which have started.  The charters provide a high level overview of the changes we will test as part of these projects to achieve our improvement aims. The Improvement Programme Update Report gives you the latest information on live projects.
