2B Practical case study examples of novel solutions in maintenance

This session unveils innovative approaches taken by organisations in the maintenance sector.

Community Engagement in Managing Assets (Shaun Aldis, Wolverhampton Homes)

With 'welfare reform' being a priority for landlords, sustaining communities and embracing the wider community needs is a key challenge. This session is a Cash back twist and Shaun Aldis will discuss how cherry picking elements of contracts can support community aspirations.  It will also touch base on bringing opportunities of employment and training to disadvantaged elements of the citizens of Wolverhampton.

Maximum productivity: squeezing the last 10% (Wayne Gethings, The Wrekin HT)

Wrekin Housing Trust had some big wins in the early years after its highly successful implementation of mobile working and appointment technology six years ago, but how have they continually driven alternate processes and practice to drive every last drop of productivity from staff?

Takeparts (Steve Coleman & Peter Brown)

Steve and Peter will show you how to delight your residents, save money and reduce your maintenance costs by demonstrating new thinking in component specification.

Spirare: simply make it simple, but not simpler (Malcolm Mulheron, Spirare)

The drive towards insulating our current housing stock has led to an unforeseen consequence – dampness, internally generated, trapped in the property and unable to escape. Malcolm Mulheron will showcase the Spirare Noozlenub which attracts moisture from walls and expels moisture vapour back into the outside atmosphere.
