What if there was a Sat Nav to guide you in which direction you should take? In this workshop, Duncan Forrow, Switchee’s Key Account Director, will explore how data from IoT devices can be used to provide actionable insights and visibility, to help Housing Providers navigate their way through this winter and support people most in need.

Yes, there will be speed humps and potholes. However, by sharing best practices from housing providers already on their journey, this workshop aims to minimise these bumps in the road so we can drive the industry forward together.

Join the convoy and let’s make no more “U-turns”.

What will be covered: 

• From a map to Sat Nav. A brief history of IoT
• The journey. Where can you go with the data? What does it tell us and how insights can be put into practical action?
• Driving efficiencies. A case study of a Housing Provider using IoT technology to improve resident communication, reduce cost, and increase sustainability.

Why should you attend? 

This workshop is a must-attend for senior social housing providers who work across multiple departments including (but not limited to) IT Transformation, Asset Management, Finance, and Communication. We will explore how IoT enables social landlords to hit challenging financial and environmental targets with real-time, remote data analytics.

What will you take away from the event?

A better understanding of IoT and how it holds the key to:

• Better asset management – a reduction in disrepair and early warning of potential condensation, damp, and mould
• Improving the quality of life for people – flagging fuel poverty and helping residents reduce energy costs by 17%
• Transformed resident communications via two-way communications
• Increasing sustainability and ESG.
