Torus Group has selected Aareon’s QL software to underpin its business. As well as the Aareon software resulting in a reduction in the number of separate business applications in use across the group from 27 to seven, the asset management module has reduced the housing provider’s annual maintenance costs by 60 per cent.
Once chosen as the preferred supplier, Aareon and Torus worked in partnership, along with some existing Aareon customers, to further develop the HMS software. The collaboration resulted in enhancements to the QL software’s asset management functionality, particularly around creating a ‘single version of the truth’ for the housing provider’s tenant, property and asset data.
Gary Howard, asset data intelligence manager, Torus, said, “The collaborative workshop hosted by Aareon has played a key part in the development of our asset management solution. Adopting this approach going forward will ensure that the product continues to be developed for the benefit of all Aareon users.”
