Leeds City Council has signed a ten-year deal with Civica for the implementation of its housing management system serving its 57,000 properties. The software provider reported that the contract was valued in the region of £2 million over its lifespan.
The new deal is the first since Civica bought the specialist housing software provider Abritas and includes Abritas Housing Needs software.
The seamless integration of Civica Housing Cx, Keystone and Abritas Housing Needs software will give the council better tools to advertise and allocate properties, empower employees with more control over day-to-day property management and provide a central information point for suppliers.
Debra Coupar, executive member for communities, Leeds City Council, said, “We wanted a single supplier to provide a functionally rich, fully integrated, end-to-end housing management solution that will transform services to our tenants via enhancing mobile and remote working, better data quality and integration, and increased functionality and efficiency.”
