Housing associations

Board assurance for registered providers.

Consumer standards, tenant satisfaction measures and a regulator that expects the board to know. Parod gives a housing board one line of sight from strategy to register to paper.

1Where it fits

Built around the way a housing board already works.

Nothing here is a housing-only feature. It is the same record, set up the way registered providers govern.

Tenant satisfaction measures
Set up as metrics under objectives, so the board sees the trend, not just the latest number.
Board and committee cycle
Board, Audit & Risk, Remuneration, Customer and Development, with a year of meetings set up once.
Strategic and operational registers
Damp and mould, building safety, cyber and arrears, beside the controls that mitigate them.
Papers readable anywhere
An installable web app, with Office files and PDFs opened in the browser rather than downloaded.
Assurance reporting
Review discipline, heat map migration and objective exposure, scheduled for Audit & Risk.
Group structures
Parent, subsidiaries and care or development arms as separate organisations.

2A worked example

One rent-setting decision, followed through the record.

Kestrel Vale Housing is a fictional provider we use for demonstrations.

The decision

A 4.8% increase approved five votes to one, recorded against item 5.

The risk and the control

The arrears risk and its hardship fund control, in view while the board discusses the paper.

The action and the metric

A paper on hardship fund uptake is actioned, and rent collected is watched every month.

3Questions

Questions housing boards ask.

01Is the data held in the United Kingdom?
Yes. The optional AI features are the one exception, set out on the security page.
02Board members use personal email addresses. Can they still sign in?
Yes. You choose whether people outside your single sign-on domains may sign in, and can require multi-factor authentication of them when they do.
03Can we keep a strategic register separate from the operational ones?
Yes. Each register has its own access list, owner and review frequency. Controls are shared across registers from one library.
04How are the Tenant Satisfaction Measures set up?
As metrics, each with its unit, decimal places and direction. We set them up with you at onboarding.
