Just Housing Group successfully implements bespoke software

East London based housing and support services business – Just Housing Group – has successfully facilitated financial savings for one of the UK’s leading housing associations by delivering a stock condition survey and a revised 30 year plan against benchmarked industry best practice.

The stock condition survey is the first of its type for Bridgwater based SHAL Housing combining a software and process driven approach to determine the housing associations repair and maintenance requirements over a prolonged period.

The software system has allowed SHAL Housing to accurately assess the levels of funding required to repair and maintain the associations stock comprising of  699 affordable homes across  Somerset. The revised plan in the long run will result in savings for the organisation which will allow SHAL to actively manage its assets as well as refresh their property portfolio with new development.

Commenting on the bespoke system, John Swinney, CEO at Just Housing Group said: “As the sector faces challenges, it is inevitable that housing associations and social housing providers are going to need to look at ways they can make financial savings, particularly as they come to develop robust 30 year plans.

“Our unique software has the ability to accurately determine what measures need to be delivered, rather than look at what might be delivered. Typically very poor inaccurate assessments have been carried out in the industry resulting in unnecessary spending, which needs to be eliminated.

“Combining our software and extensive housing knowledge is a different approach to delivering a stock condition survey and revised plan. And it is one approach that has been proven to deliver accurate, evidence based results that housing associations can place their full confidence in.”

Moving forward JHG will work alongside SHAL in the next phase to deliver the revised plan.

Established in 2004, Just Housing provides services and support in the supply, management and maintenance of social housing. The organisation successfully leads in transforming and creating Direct Labour Organisations (DLO) and with offices in London the company employs 25 staff.
