Accredit: Income Management

Accredit: Income Management is the UK's only accreditation system specifically designed for the full range of income management services operating in the social housing sector. 

This accreditation has been built using our extensive experience of helping social housing providers to design and deliver high quality services. Our knowledge and expert resources are recognised across the housing sector and we have worked with many of the country’s top performers.

We recognise that there is a challenging time ahead for social landlords, their residents and communities. In addition to job losses and major welfare benefit reforms, cuts in public spending are already adding pressure to limited resources.

At a time when everyone has to do more with less, housing organisations face three, core business challenges:

  • Maximising income
  • Minimising arrears
  • Supporting and sustaining tenancies.

Accredit: Income Management helps housing providers to meet these challenges by applying an objective, rigorous and challenging scrutiny process, which focuses on positive outcomes for customers and communities.
