The latest edition of Housing Technology has picked up on
Adactus Housing and its use of Invu. (Check it out at http://tinyurl.com/Adactus-in-HT.)
This Housing Association has over 12,000 housing stock in the North
West and recognised a compelling need to improve value for money, improved
service and control amongst other issues. Remedying these issues revolved
around document processing and with Invu’s growing reputation and adoption in
the HA sector Invu was selected. Adactus pinpointed the Finance department as
the first port of call for a multi-staged project across the group. It’s much
more than a simple secure repository – automated workflows, intelligent content
extraction and integration with the finance system make this a pro-active
solution. The Invu deployment has been a close engagement and a genuine
collaboration to ensure deliver of a solution which fits the Adactus ambitions.
The finance process has been streamlined to the point where
authorisation is quicker and matching against the finance system (QLf) is
straightforward. There’s no measures yet on how much more speedy authorisation
is but the level of control on exposure levels is much firmer now and this is a
major step forward. There’s more details in the Adactus
case study and we’re delighted that the Adactus solution is attracting the
interest of other HAs in similar circumstances. It’s a project which has
created a pattern which other HAs have now taken up and these are now being
rolled out. Others have been keen to follow and we hope to see many more.
