Driving change for tenants, customers and communities

Housing associations play a critical role in our communities by providing accommodation and care to parts of the UK population in need of a home. However, they are under unprecedented pressure as new regulations place an increased focus on tenant satisfaction measures, and the drive to net zero is causing a rethink of supply chain relationships, managing housing stock and operational efficiency. 

At the current time, inflationary pressures are also stress-testing household incomes and driving arrears, bringing further challenges to housing associations

Property and construction organisations, are also facing a very challenging market; not only because heavily influenced by its cyclical nature but because of external factors, like inflation, salaries squeeze, increasing cost of raw materials and disruption to the supply chain.
