Health & Safety in Housing

Health & Safety in Housing

Health and Safety in Housing is the replacement of the Housing Fitness Standard. The Housing Health and Safety Rating System is a comprehensive risk analysis system replacing the old housing fitness standard.

But how do you collect and analyse the correct data relating to your housing stock? This site gives advice and survey software recommendations that use the power of pocket based survey tools.

Housing Stock Data Collection

It is important to collect your housing stock data efficiently, accurately and quickly. To this aim we recommend using a pocket pc based data capture system specially tailored for the surveyor.

Collect accurate data by devising the correct questions in the form of an electronic survey or questionnaire. You will need a survey design tool and a mobile data collection device.

Pocket Survey Software

Using a pocket survey system will reduce your data collection time dramatically and give rise to huge saving because re-keying of survey data is avoided completely.

The most powerful system we have seen so far is Pocket Survey the ideal pocket surveyor's tool that fits in you pocket but adds power to your survey data capture exercise.

Housing Fitness Standard

The Housing Fitness Standard is being replaced with the Housing Health and Safety Rating System. The new housing fitness rating system is well structured but you will need software to help collect the required data and analyse the survey results.

Housing Stock Condition Software

What are the choices for housing stock condition software? You can pay millions for an outdated and cumbersome housing stock condition application suite using very old technology (even character based screens!). We do not think this is not an acceptable choice any more since the emergence of modern and efficient alternatives costing much less.

You can now adopt one of the newer type of housing stock condition software that not only reports on the condition of your housing stock but also offer a handheld data capture solution as well.

We have a found a few such applications but only one offered everything for truly efficient housing stock condition surveys. Let us know if you have any recommendations.

Replace out dated paper based data collection systems with pocket pc mobile data capture survey software. Electronic pocket based surveys are here to stay!
