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?
02Board members use personal email addresses. Can they still sign in?
03Can we keep a strategic register separate from the operational ones?
04How are the Tenant Satisfaction Measures set up?
