THE CHALLENGE

The London Borough of Ealing set up a LATCo, Greener Ealing Limited (GEL), to deliver its waste collection, HWRCs, cleansing, parks and cemeteries service following a long history of the services being provided by the private sector, with the aim of allowing the Council greater control and improving services.

THE SOLUTION

Plan B created a detailed financial model which provided a year by year P&L for the contract term, monthly budgets by service for the first 21 months of the contract, cash flow projections and a balance sheet.

Additionally, a payroll model was created to help assess the impact of a wide range of pay settlement proposals.

THE OUTCOME

The payroll modelling not only assisted GEL in honouring its commitment to introduce the London Living Wage but also harmonise rates of pay, reducing from the inherited 117 different rates of pay to 5 standardised rates.

Plan B assisted in identifying operational savings to enable GEL to deliver this within budget.

“Maz and his team provided us with support across a wide range of issues establishing our P&L, contract review, Health & Safety RAs and SSOW and general support. Their approach is totally customer focussed and very responsive to our needs. Steve Batchelor and Jemma Thripp have both been first class throughout.”
