Annually | Annual Reviews In addition to the monthly & quarterly reviews, Claritum recommends a formal annual review to allow both Client Senior Management & Claritum’s Senior Team to ensure the success of the relationship & address any barriers to a mutually beneficial relationship.
Annual Reviews typically follow the broad agenda for the quarterly meetings but will include a ‘bigger picture’ business update, more strategic assessment of platform usage & performance & contribution to overall business goals & objectives.
The annual review should also include a discussion on contract, commercial performance & benefits delivered (both Claritum & Client) to maintain & improve alignment of both organisations & the likelihood of an ongoing successful relationship.
