The ARC (Annual Return of the Charter) regulatory report is a set of standard key performance indicators that organisations are required to report to the Scottish Housing Regulator.

MIS Active Management Systems have developed a standard report connecting to our Best Practice approach, using the latest Technical Guidance provided by the Scottish Housing Regulator, which gives customers an almost one click solution when completing their ARC return. The ARC report may also be used to review the organisations performance and assist in the creation of KPI reports for Management and Board meetings.

The ActiveH Business Intelligence Reporting module turns your housing data into information that can be harnessed to shape and monitor your service delivery.

From strategic scorecards, KPI information, through to operational awareness, our Business Intelligence solution provides all users with a role-based view, right from the point they enter the system. From each report, users can view summaries and trends, access the detail that it was created from, then drilldown into system areas directly from a clickable link to easily view specific elements of data.

If there is a requirement for bespoke reporting to suit your business needs, it is easy to customise reports. An in-depth computer or database knowledge is not necessary to tailor reports to your requirements and full training is naturally provided as part of the package.

Smart Browser is an easy to use and intuitive non-technical ActiveH user reporting tool. It allows the creation of ad-hoc operational reports to address the simple questions like who? how many? where? and when?

Smart Browser reports are simple and effective reports that can be saved for repeated use, and made available to colleagues where appropriate.

The Smoothing and Modelling solution can factor in a range of criteria when generating planned maintenance programmes. Once an agreed programme has been approved it can be published and be accessible by colleagues, customers, partners and other stakeholders.

Once the base programme has been created, the system offers the ability for the user to apply different spend profiles over time via an extremely intuitive and interactive graphical model. Planned maintenance spend can be ”smoothed” to match the reality of available budgets year on year. This ensures that the programme generated is realistic, ensuring that it can be delivered within available budgets.
