Social Housing
Harnessing data to improve administration of social housing portfolios
The Internet of Things is currently exploding in scope, with current predictions that more than 50 billion devices will be connected by 2020. As the demand for social housing is also increasing across the country, landlords both public and private sector are experiencing an ever-increasing range of challenges, from increasing maintenance costs to tenant safety. IoT devices hold the key to unlocking enormous cost savings and operational efficiencies, providing organisations with intelligent ways to manage their properties and budgets.
According to the BBC, local authorities in England have paid out more than £35m in compensation and legal fees to people living in ‘unfit’ homes. IntechnologySmartCities’s award winning IoT solution provides housing associations with the digital tools they need to ensure their properties are safe, healthy and energy efficient. Real-time sensors allow for pro-active monitoring of the condition of properties and alarm notifications of dangerous conditions. The end result is a higher quality of living for tenants, including an ever-increasing elderly population.
