ONE CIC is a not-for-profit Community Interest Company created to make a positive impact on people affected by homelessness.
Providing affordable, high-quality accommodation to homeless people is at the centre of ONE CIC's mission, along with re-investing surplus income back into the communities it serves and supports.
It was critical in the early development of the organisation that the infrastructure needed to be robust, state of the art and primed for growth.
It was equally important that ONE CIC had a range of specialist suppliers and partners to enable the team to efficiently manage the complex day to day operations and support.
With a significant number of properties and tenants (often with complex needs), ONE CIC brought in a specialist Housing Management System, along with online accounting and administrative software.
ONE CIC decided to partner with Cirrus Technology Solutions to provide a full range of technology services for both its head office based in Warrington and to support its UK-wide remote teams.
Cirrus is attracting wide attention in the housing and associated sectors, particularly from small and medium-size organisations.
UK Housing took the opportunity to find out more and, in particular - get some feedback from ONE CIC.
