New Research Underway Into Quality of Social Landlord Data

The Centre for Regional Economic and Social Research (CRESR) at Sheffield Hallam University is undertaking new research into whether social landlords’ tenant data is truly fit for purpose. The research will focus on two key areas – how good landlords think their data is and what they’re doing to improve and consolidate it. The principle aim of the research is to ascertain how landlords can adapt to the future demands of Direct Payments. CRESR will target local authority landlords, ALMOs and housing associations across England, Scotland and Wales and seek responses to a web-based questionnaire. The focus of the survey is on issues of data quality, management, access and utility. The survey questionnaire can be accessed at the CRESR website.
