The Problem

Most HMOs still rely on disconnected tools that create gaps in your operations and compliance records.

WhatsApp

No proof staff were on site

Messages can be deleted, timestamps are unreliable, and there's no verifiable audit trail for inspections or funding applications.

Spreadsheets

Poor support records

Spreadsheets lack proper validation, can be easily edited or corrupted, and don't provide the structured data needed for compliance reporting.

Paper Logs

Lost maintenance evidence

Physical documents can be misplaced, damaged, or lost entirely, leaving you without critical evidence when inspectors arrive or funding is reviewed.

Emails

Inspection stress

Important information gets buried in inboxes, making it difficult to quickly compile evidence and reports when inspectors request documentation.

Disconnected Systems

Risk to funding and compliance

Using multiple unconnected tools creates gaps in your records, making it impossible to demonstrate full compliance and putting your funding at risk.

Manual Processes

Time-consuming and error-prone

Manual data entry and record-keeping takes hours of staff time each week and increases the likelihood of human error that could impact compliance.
