Housing Associations

Industry Expertise

Social Housing has become a high profile issue across the UK in recent years, with huge volumes of housing stock having been transferred from local authority ownership to Housing Associations.  The housing sector continues to change and evolve in response to key government initiatives that are centred around sustainable communities, efficiency and customer influence. The pursuit of efficiency in particular is helping to drive a growing trend towards mergers and acquisition.

At Sapphire we understand that social housing providers are continually seeking to raise their standards - which creates numerous challenges in the areas of strategy, performance and governance. Much of this is in response to increased regulatory and inspection requirements, and the emergence of private sector providers in the affordable housing market. With all these issues surrounding the sector it is essential to have internal systems which provide efficient, integrated financial, housing and asset management. 

Sapphire's range solutions can help to meet these many challenges by offering a range of functions to meet the very specific requirements of the Housing Association sector, including:

	Better, faster collection and monitoring of financial information for improved control of overheads.
	Joined-up working with partners and suppliers, meeting e-Government objectives
	Rent Accounting and full compliance with Housing Association financial accounting and reporting requirement.
	Proven interfaces to Housing Management systems such as arcHouse from Orchard, Capita, Open Housing, Aareon, Universal Housing from Comino and First Housing from SX3 to reduce data-duplication, rekeying and input errors.
	An integrated Management Information System which allows you to drill into all your financial details - right from accounts to repairs in the housing system.
	Flexible scalability to allow for growth (from 1-200 users per system).
	Integrated links to Document Management Software to greatly improve workflow.
