Service Standard Commitments

What are Ocean's Standard Commitments?

On this page this will find information about the level of service you can expect to receive from Ocean and ways that you can give your feedback on how we are performing.

The senior member of staff with responsibility for compliance with the consumer standards is Frances Turner, Managing Director of Ocean Housing.

Consultation

The Regulator of Social Housing (RSH) are updating their regulatory consumer standards and have collected feedback on them. There are four draft consumer standards which detail specific expectations and outcomes that all social landlords, such as Ocean Housing, are expected to achieve. The consultation closed on 17 October 2023.
You can view the draft standards here: Consumer standards consultation

How are we performing?

Ocean works with research company, IFF Research to survey our tenants and residents.  We ask a range of questions to get an understanding of what tenants think we are doing well and not so well, so that we can evolve and develop our services.

Performance Q2 - 2023/24

What are Ocean's Service Standard Commitments?

Back in the Spring of 2019, Ocean joined a small number of housing associations as an early adopter of Together With Tenants (TWT) from the National Housing Federation.

The focus of TWT was to strengthen the relationship between residents and housing association landlords.

As part of this process we took a close look at our service standards with our involved tenants and residents and set them out against the six TWT Charter Commitments set out below:

Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM)

On 1 April 2023, the Regulator for Social Housing introduced a new a new system for assessing how well social housing landlords in England are doing at providing good quality homes and services.

As part of a wider package of reforms, all social housing landlords must now survey their tenants and residents using a set of questions called Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM).  Feedback from the survey will be collected by all landlords through 2023/24 with the Regulator publishing a league table of results in the Summer 2024.

You can read more about TSMs and what it means for you as an Ocean tenant on the Regulator of Social Housing website here.
