Efficiency through best practice

‘Best practice’ is founded on the idea that the best use of resources plus the least amount of effort gives the best result. Best practice methods are usually tried and tested, and can be applied across industry sectors and/or disciplines because the fundamental principles remain true. Yorkshire Forward is encouraging the use of best practice in Yorkshire & Humber in order to benefit the economy as a whole.
