It’s the first anniversary of the start of our business applications management service (BAMS) for Tower Hamlets Community Housing and to celebrate we’re sharing some of the great feedback we’ve had over the past year. 

I’m not certain that Robert Jenrick’s announcement on EWS 1 forms for buildings under 18 metres will necessarily improve building safety or do anything to solve the issues that EWS1 has created for the housing “market”.

Thank you to everyone who came to our recent panel discussion about how housing IT teams responded to coronavirus.

Colleagues across the sector demonstrated what was possible, completely transforming ways of working, business processes and systems in only six weeks.  

Here are our thoughts on how we can all capitalise on the phenomenal achievements made last year and turn this into a model for long-term, sustainable improvement and delivery,

Our background working in property compliance reaches back over 20 years and one of the things that has been a source of constant surprise is the lack of mature software products in the market designed specifically to support this function.

At Manifest, we have always treated our suppliers fairly, paying their bills on time. This means paying our suppliers as quickly as possible, and never more than seven days after receipt of an invoice. 

With this in mind, we’re really proud to announce that we are now registered signatories to the Prompt Payment Code. 

For millions of workers, the last few months have been their first experience of regular home working.  For some it’s very liberating, but for those in crowded or unsuitable housing it’s a struggle.
