In today’s dynamic technological landscape, innovation is not just a buzzword; it’s a necessity. Especially when it comes to ensuring the safety and well-being of communities, embracing cutting-edge solutions becomes paramount. This is where TCW, an innovative software company, steps in, offering a game-changing approach to property safety compliance for housing associations.
Over the years there have been multiple occasions where safety issues and regulatory changes have arisen and TCW has been able to position its clients in a proactive, data-informed way empowering them to react fast!
One example of this was a report of an inquest which heard that five people had died after using certain models of gas cookers, with another 13 deaths linked and fears that large numbers were still in use. Upon finding out the serial numbers, TCW ran a report on the data stored within its software and identified 1,153 addresses in the UK with similar or exact serial numbers. All clients were notified to ensure appliances at these addresses could be checked and tenants informed.
Concerns raised by manufacturers regarding certain models of appliances such as the example above have highlighted the critical need for swift and effective identification of affected assets within property portfolios. Having insight from data collected in certificates and documents assists landlords in identifying and protecting against potential risks and hazards to health and safety from any deficiencies identified in dwellings in accordance with the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS) Guidance.
TCW’s state-of-the-art technology swiftly identifies properties housing the affected appliances, providing clients with a comprehensive list of addresses. But TCW doesn’t stop there; it goes a step further by offering a detailed heat map, illustrating the nationwide distribution of the issue.
