Believe Housing saves money using EmeRed
The Challenge:
Believe Housing manages 18,000 properties, requiring frequent electrical compliance checks. Traditional methods were labour-intensive, costly, and relied heavily on manual entry, leaving room for error and compliance risks.
The Solution:
Believe Housing partnered with Vericon Systems to implement EmeRed technology. This innovative solution enables proactive, automated emergency lighting testing across their housing stock. EmeRed devices can be retrofitted to existing light fittings, reducing waste and costs. Automatic testing data feeds directly into a centralised dashboard, providing real-time insights, alerts, and seamless integration with asset and compliance databases.
Results:
- Improved Compliance and Safety: Automated testing ensures accurate, complete records and allows for swift, preventative action on potential issues.
- Operational Efficiency: Reduced time, costs, mileage, and carbon footprint associated with manual testing.
- Enhanced Customer Experience: Increased first-time fix rates (95.8%) have led to higher customer satisfaction scores (9.3/10).
- Sustainability: Projected to remove 13,500 miles of travel and 5.2 tons of CO2 emissions per year, supporting green initiatives.
- Cost Savings: Expected to save £500,000 over 10 years through reduced salaries, funds, and fuel expenses.
- Scalability: Largest EmeRed installation in the country, with potential to expand to additional buildings and integrate with other remote technologies.
“This innovative idea is the best the market currently provides for emergency lighting checks… The initial investment is significant, but we believe it is more than worthwhile due to the benefits this system brings.”
