What is the Compliance module?

Meeting challenging compliance regulations and key regulatory requirements is a huge responsibility for every social housing landlord. From gas servicing to carbon monoxide safety checks and maintaining fire safety to meeting damp and mould standards, every housing provider must adhere to evolving regulatory and non-regulatory requirements.

BRIKHousing Compliance is an award-winning end-to-end compliance management system designed for housing associations. Fully integrated with BRIKHousing: Repairs, Planned Maintenance and Asset Management, it enables seamless oversight of all compliance obligations.

Our system, powered by Microsoft Dynamics 365 and the Power Platform, harnesses the incredible capabilities of Microsoft to deliver a compliance solution that’s packed with features. It simplifies processes, minimises risk and boosts operational efficiency.

Why use BRIKHousing Compliance?

Staying compliant isn’t just about a box ticking exercise; it’s a promise to ensure the safety and well-being of residents while avoiding costly penalties. Housing providers must continuously adapt to changing regulations and avoid any compliance breaches and expensive penalties.

Meeting sustainability targets, like reaching Net Zero and fulfilling EPC (Energy Performance Certificate) requirements, brings an extra layer of complexity to compliance obligations. Moreover, the increasing risk of legal action in the changing regulatory environment means that organisations need to take a proactive stance on compliance. We’ve heard from many housing associations who struggle with fragmented data, which makes it tough to maintain a single source of truth for compliance checks and reporting. BRIKHousing Compliance can automate compliance tasks, give you centralised control, and robust reporting to ensure your organisation remains compliant and efficient even when you’re up against complex regulations.

What are the benefits of the Compliance module?

Stay compliant: Effortlessly keep up with the ever-changing housing and safety regulations

Increase efficiency: Optimisation of workflows leads to increased efficiency, reduced errors, improved compliance and enhanced visibility, resulting in better business performance and cost savings

Improve data visibility: Centralised compliance data enables faster and smarter decision-making

Enhance resident safety: Ensure properties meet the highest safety standards, covering everything from gas and fire inspections to electrical and asbestos management

Increased productivity: Automatically generate jobs based on inspection frequency and certification dates, reduced manual data entry and elimination of redundant tasks, leading to increased efficiency and productivity.

Sustainable housing: Achieve your Net Zero goals with enhanced compliance monitoring and provide safer, sustainable for your residents and leaseholders.

How we deploy the solution_

The BRIK Housing Management Solution has been developed in a modular way giving our customers total flexibility with what they want to deploy. . We always start by implementing a module then playing it back to you so you can identify what changes are needed.

Our effective implementation approach works in sprints, which guarantee a speedy delivery and development.

Many of our clients are surprised at how quickly modules can be deployed, with some taking only 8 weeks to be up and running. One of the main reasons for the speed in which we deploy our modules is that they have been developed in close partnership with other clients, so you are benefitting from all the implementations that went before.

“The collaboration by all parties has been excellent and great to see. The new solution and ways of working lay the foundations for improving our service to customers. This was a complex implementation with tight timescales, but you all rose to the challenge.
