Canonbury Performance Statistics and Targets

Canonbury Management’s research has shown that no UK Block managers besides ourselves are able to show prospective and existing customers the actual response times and costs based on their live portfolio data. This page provides an objective way to assess our efficacy and efficiency which is driven from our database of issues, costs and times. In recent conversations with ARMA, they indicated that they hoped to have these targets available in a few years time. Canonbury brings you these figures, dynamically calculated, now. It is our view that only by looking at these statistics can prospective and existing customers get beyond the rhetoric of sales and reliance on subjective references from favourable customers. Whilst we have those too, we’d rather our clients looked at the factual statistics for information.
