Efficiencies. 4.1 The Commissioner expects suppliers to work with the Constabulary to constantly improve their service and create efficiencies for the future. Therefore the Commissioner will conduct annual reviews to monitor progress on; Communication, Customer Satisfaction, Product Rationalisation, Environment, Equalities, Improvements to service, Innovation, Price and Quality standards. This review will not only focus on achievements made in these areas from the previous year, but also ideas and proposals for the following year. Both the supplier and an authorised officer from the Commissioner will sign off all reviews. Should there be an inflationary clause in a long-running contract, it is conditional on a successful efficiency and Improvement review. Sign off shall be by both parties and no payment will be made against the inflationary clause until after a successful review has taken place.

Efficiencies. As the Council faces a £35 million budget gap, we asked the groups how they thought their schools could be more efficient in saving money.

Efficiencies. On each anniversary of the Effective Date, Mexcor and DA will review any cost savings with respect to the production of the Products (including component parts) that have been realized during the previous twelve (12) month period measured against the cost-of-goods-sold (COGS) set forth in Schedule A on the Effective Date.. Such cost savings are anticipated to occur as a result of Mexcor assuming the production responsibilities with respect to the Products. Fifteen percent (15%) of the gross production savings, measured against the COGS set forth in the original Schedule A, will be added to the Drinks Fees otherwise payable to DA under Section 10.a, which addition will accrue promptly with respect to sales of Products commencing the day after such anniversary date. For example, if Old Whisky River Bourbon’s Drinks Fee is ten dollars ($10) dollars per case or case equivalent and the production costs related to Old Whiskey River were reduced over the first year of the Agreement from the current $73.25 to $63.25 (a net saving of $10.00), the Drinks Fee with respect to this Product would be increased by 15% of $10, or $1.50, resulting in a revised Drinks Fee of $11.50. If during the second year of the Agreement, the productions costs increased from $63.25 to $73.25 (a net increase from the first year, but no net increase or decrease when measured against the COGS on the Effective Date), to the extent not counterbalanced by a pricing increase, the Drinks Free for this Product will return to $10.00.
