Lets All Tilt

If you do the Twitter thing, follow me at @HousingITguy
or LinkedIn here https://uk.linkedin.com/in/tonysmiththathousingitguy

Around Housing management Solution providers, no one can deny there has been some serious consolidation over the last decade. NEC bought Northgate, MRI bought a smorgasbord of softwares, Civica have hoovered up Keystone and Abritas. If you are a supplier out there, you better be a good disrupter or prepare to manage half a decade of decline (so my contacts tell me).

While distracted by these consolidations, some including lots of legacy solutions, liberal sprinklings of Silverlight, old skool Client-Server and other non-Cloud first demons, some suppliers are quietly buying in Cloud ready solutions under the radar. Why would you not? Exactly what I would be doing if I had deep pockets available to spend. Why buy legacy solutions that will cost an arm and a leg to move to full Cloud & browser presentation?

EU wide housing software and mobile supplier Aareon, have been really canny recently in buying up FixFlow, Arthur Online and Tilt’s Affinity in Northern Ireland, who have capability to support Differential Rents in southern Ireland. The nice thing here is that these are all written for cloud already, their challenge is only to integrate. So with well targeted resources, we should only wait 9-18 months to see a nice offering here, if done right.

Of course, the danger with buy-ups is always that existing directors can be enabled to ‘cash-in’ and if not well managed, experienced staff run to the hills and take better jobs elsewhere. Lets hope Aareon manage this better than others have historically. Notable is that back in August 2020, Aareal Bank in Mainz (a lovely city in Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany), sold 30% stake in IT subsidiary Aareon. This software arm in all the EU and UK sectors it operates, must pay its way.

Aareon have a significant footprint in the UK social housing marketplace with its Client-Server solutions. As we know, markets and organisation needs have changed drastically over the last 18 months of Covid19. Maybe its new acquisitions will keep it desired and relevant. More important, if I were managing Aareon, I would hope that these new acquisitions would be a means of accelerating getting the existing customer base onto a new Cloud and browser journey in a cost effective manner. Potentially there is more modern raw material here than from some other suppliers at the minute. 

Lets see what its management makes of it. Potentially some hard leg-work to do here, that might result in good outcomes for better social housing solutions.

Common Housing Register People

If you do the Twitter thing, follow me at @HousingITguy or LinkedIn here https://uk.linkedin.com/in/tonysmiththathousingitguy

 
Smuggled out just prior to the Christmas 2016 break, you may have missed the news that popular Common Housing Register software supplier, Abritas have now been acquired by Civica.I had heard a whisper earlier in the autumn and thought this an interesting one.

In the deal, Civica pick up the web based housing needs, options & letting application, including an online mutual exchange tool to help tenants swap homes (www.swapandmove.co.uk). This follows on from other merger & acquisitions related to UKHousing, such as Keystone Asset Management, a few years ago and Coldharbour for community care.

This acquisition is billed naturally from Simon Reynolds of Abritas as "...the next stage in the development of our business and is a very positive step for employees, customers and partners".

Past experiences of other products being merged into a group, have resulted in a (sometimes shoddy) re-badge of software, merging of help/support desks, loss of experienced staff, loss of focus, increased prices and generally some deterioration of service to customers and end-users.Perhaps Civica may consider moving some of those incoming web developers, over to the Cx implementations. Particularly one organisation I am working with, would benefit greatly from that.

It will be interesting to see how this evolves, with the many clients I work with, using Abritas solutions and moving over to the Cx Housing system. I do tend to hear a degree of moaning, although I am unsure if that is a result of bad initial specification of CHR requirements when procuring or any particular service issues. Common Housing Registers can be contentious and I often see them hosted on particular HMS letting platforms, such as Northgate, Orchard and others. Other CHR platforms are available. Keeping all CHR partners happy however, is no mean feat.  

It will have netted Civica a number of new customers, as around 170 organisations are currently thought to utilise CHR's across the UK.

Read the full announcement here.

Swell Maps

If you do the X / Bluesky thing, follow me at @HousingITguy or LinkedIn here https://uk.linkedin.com/in/tonysmiththathousingitguy


I  don’t know if you have noticed this last six months, the shear volume of software solution buy up and acquisition activity in the public and socialhousing sector? Its reducing actual choice and I have heard it said it actually stifles innovation. 

Its sure as hell easier for some outfits to buy up solutions, also bagging customers needing yet more numbers in their sales ledgers, than getting out being hungry and winning new business. What with MRI concluding its purchase of Capita’s public sector offerings after challenge, Aareon doing it with Designer Software’s Homemaster and MIS-AMS ActiveH, its as one colleague confided to me, “well its just down to a few players now for modern procurement”.

The trouble of course with buying up just anything, is suppliers can end up like having an overfilled golf bag. When that difficult opportunity comes it, its 3 times as hard to work out what club would be best to hit that ball with. In the last few months I have heard multiple pitches telling different stories about the same products in the inventory, with often the sales team confused. We are in a sector where good staff are leaving because they are approaching retirement, family life is changing for them, or just don’t want to be TUPE’d over (again) to a corporate monolith. A good merger also is a time to cut down that dead wood that you haven’t tackled in many years and fortunately your new owners will do the unpleasant pruning.

Unfortunately if acquisitions are not done well and managed well, your product offering becomes more like a soup, a thick and not too present one too. No wonder some of the new kids on the block are doing so well, such as the dinosaur slayer (you know who I mean), who is proud to just sell 3 things really well and tell you what the cost per property is. Simples !

Also, for balance, other alternatives on CRM based solutions are available with D365 & Salesforce. Other dinosaur slayers of a kind !

So, to be blogging about yet another acquisition, is unfortunate, although to be honest, a little less so.

This month another of those big public sector software suppliers picked up a GIS solution. NEC (nee NPS Northgate Public Services) ‘strategically’ acquired CadCorp. Full chapter and verse can be read here. 

I am familiar with Cadcorp, as back in 2011 at my old shop (MIS-AMS) we were resellers of its UK based product and even back then it had clever and flexible integrations and rich features. It’s a good product and I still hear good things about it. 

In contrast to a few others this feels less like a desperate hoovering up of solutions and more like adding an essential part of a jigsaw into their offerings around Blue Light, safety, energy, infrastructure and others in addition to social housing, via API’s.

It would be hoped that the comments on the marriage ring true and this brings something bigger than the sum of its two parts, rather than what is often experienced elsewhere, merged help-desks and a tin-ear in reference to general customer service. 

Aside from taking over Anite OHMS back in Nov 2008 (after the OFT decided not to refer it to the Competition Commission), NEC now have pretty much one of everything to pitch. Less of the multiples,  “which contractor, which mobile, or which housing solution this time”, type nonsense.

Paradoxically, having more traditional product to choose from with the same logo on the front, can often cause more problems than it solves. If mixing products, always check if they have been integrated in that manner before, successfully tried or not. I hear far too many occurrences of this, with often bigger landlords often being caught out worse. I am sure some contacts of mine may be reading this and thinking “yes”, its easier to be caught out than you think! So, readers, let the buyer beware. 

Two many products? - how to scope your options ?

Come Together

If you do the Twitter thing, follow me at @HousingITguy or LinkedIn here https://uk.linkedin.com/in/tonysmiththathousingitguy


I don’t know how many people working and interested in social housing repairs, field service or contractor solutions, spotted a big change at the end of last month being announced. Two solutions popular in a range of world-wide English speaking nations merging.  

Gold Coast Brisbane based Simpro Group acquired Leeds based ‘Big Change’, which has been valued at  x now touts itself as ‘Best-in-Class Global Offering in Field Services Software’ and they could be right.
 
I have worked with serial entrepreneur Martin Port and his team in Leeds and also seen Big Change’s product be successful in a new DLO in mid-Wales. Being a Critical Friend when helping to take it live was not too arduous, maybe twice as fast as similar contractor solutions, due to being 100% Cloud/Browser and uniquely integrated to van tracking.


Simpro’s SAAS approach is very attractive and Big Change joins Oz Victoria State based AroFlo Innovations and California based ClockShark timesheeting, in a growing eco-system that I see UK & Southern Irish repair and maintenance contractors increasingly using. 

I think a tie up with a modern SAAS dynamic scheduling tool, such as MoreIQ would make sense, enhancing ClockShark capabilities. Something I think Nick Shipton & Gael Sainson might want to explore. (just a thought)!

Interesting to see where this partnership goes and if some of the more ‘classic’ software suppliers in the space, might be squeezed here going forward if they struggle innovating, or still with product not quite finished for the Cloud or still somewhat old tech.

How might this shape the field service market, particularly in the UK & Ireland?

What future innovations should we be looking for from Contractor, scheduling, mobile and field service applications for socialhousing ?

Art , Empire, industry

If you do the X / Bluesky thing, follow me at @HousingITguy or LinkedIn here https://uk.linkedin.com/in/tonysmiththathousingitguy

Most people in social housing will have come across Manifest Software Solutions (previously South View for you oldies out there!) at some point, even if they did not always realise it. They tend to be good when systems stop talking to each other and patience is running thin. APIs, flat files, awkward legacy databases, vendor finger pointing etc. Manifest usually find a way through. 

Likewise, SAVA will be a familiar name to anyone who has spent time wrestling with EPCs, energy modelling, retrofit evidence, intelligent energy modelling, or the growing pressure to actually understand stock performance rather than just report on it. What far fewer people seem to have clocked is that both of these firms now sit inside the Infoshare+ group , which has been quietly recently building a footprint across local government and social housing.

That quiet bit matters. The sector is used to big, noisy players with glossy launches and confident claims about transformation. InfosharePlus has not done that. Instead from CIPFA in Nov24, it has been steadily assembling capability that sits underneath the surface. Integration that works in the real world rather than the ideal one, and energy and asset intelligence that aligns uncomfortably well with where regulation, funding and scrutiny are heading. It raises an interesting question. Are we watching the early stages of a new MRI, Civica or Aareon style group forming, not by swallowing whole housing management systems in one go, but by slowly stitching together the bits that everyone else struggles to do well?

If that is the ambition, it is not a bad one. Infoshare+ does have the current strapline “Helping local public services create better outcomes for all”, which is positive. Then again, Google adopted “Don’t be evil” as an informal corporate motto in the early 2000s too. I don’t recall that sticking in the end that one!

I don’t think the SocialHousing sector does not really need another monolithic platform promise. What it needs is less friction between systems, better evidence behind asset decisions, and fewer heroic spreadsheets propping up regulatory returns. Starting with integration and energy data is arguably a smarter route than starting with front end functionality. It tackles real pain rather than perceived gaps. But this is also where many previous attempts have sometimes come unstuck.

For this to be genuinely good for the sector, Infoshare+ would need to resist the temptation to simply become another vendor gravity well. Housing organisations already carry too much technical debt and too many overlapping tools. The value here only materialises if integration is used to reduce duplication, not multiply it, and if energy and asset data becomes part of a shared, trusted core rather than another specialist silo. If clients end up with three loosely connected expensive platforms just wearing one pretty badge, nothing has really improved.

They would also need to not forget to lean hard into the social purpose of their client base. Social housing is not just another regulated industry. Decisions about data, evidence and systems have direct consequences for tenants, safety, affordability and trust. Getting this right means prioritising transparency, auditability and resilience over shiny features. It means being honest about what can and cannot be delivered, automated, and designing for the long term reality of stretched teams, ageing stock and political scrutiny. Plenty of larger suppliers talk about this (and AI almost forever these days!). Fewer consistently design for it.

There is also a cultural challenge. The reason original firms like Manifest and SAVA are generally currently respected is that they tend to deal mostly in reality rather than aspiration. They understand messy data, imperfect processes and the compromises that come with legacy estates. Scaling that mindset inside a growing group is not easy. Many acquisitions fail not because the technology is wrong, but because the delivery culture gets diluted or buried under layers of governance and sales pressure. Often in group structures, it might take over 3 months to even get a quote for quite routine work. If Infoshare+ wants to do this better than others have managed, it will need to protect that pragmatism rather than sanding it down.

From my decades of Critical Friend experience, looking at this development as a client or sector observer, I would be less interested in whether Infoshare+ becomes the next big name, and more interested in whether it becomes the most trusted one. Trust in this sector is built by fixing awkward problems without drama, being clear about ownership when things break, and helping organisations simplify rather than accumulate. Charging a perceived reasonable price is appreciated too, less of the £10k staring price for everything maybe? . Quiet growth can be a strength if it stays grounded in respectful reliable delivery and purpose.

There is something potentially interesting forming here. Whether it becomes genuinely positive for social housing will depend on choices made now, before the group gets too big to remember why people valued the individual parts in the first place. As ever, the sector will judge it not on ambition, but on whether life gets materially easier, safer and more defensible for the people who have to live with the outcomes.

More on Infoshare+ Public Sector here and its larger more diverse owner Omni.
