Orbit Housing Group Chooses Symbiant’s Award-Winning Audit Management Software

For housing associations and social housing organisations, maintaining visibility across audit recommendations and producing timely reporting for management and Audit Committees can become increasingly difficult when relying on manual tracking processes.

Orbit Housing Group required a solution capable of simplifying implementation, automating audit tracking activities, and improving reporting efficiency while minimising ongoing administration and maintenance.

By implementing Symbiant’s Audit Management Software, the organisation gained a connected and intuitive platform designed to streamline audit management processes and provide real-time visibility across audit recommendations and actions.

 

The Challenge

Before implementing Symbiant, Orbit Housing Group required a more efficient approach to managing audit recommendations and reporting activities.

The organisation needed a solution capable of:

  • Simplifying implementation and setup
  • Automating audit tracking processes
  • Reducing ongoing maintenance requirements
  • Improving visibility across audit recommendations
  • Enhancing reporting to management and Audit Committees
  • Providing real-time reporting capabilities
  • Reducing administrative burden

Like many organisations, maintaining efficient reporting and oversight through manual processes created unnecessary operational complexity.

Why Orbit Housing Group Chose Symbiant

One of the key benefits highlighted by Orbit Housing Group was the simplicity and ease of implementation provided by Symbiant’s Audit Management Software.

“Symbiant came highly recommended to us and it is a product which is easy to set up and implement.”

The organisation also highlighted the operational efficiency gained once the system was embedded into day-to-day processes.

”Once set up it works on its own with minimal maintenance and provides up to date reports on the status of recommendations.”

For management teams and Audit Committees, having access to timely and accurate reporting became a significant advantage.

”Reporting to management and the Audit Committee is much easier and enhanced due to the facilities available in Symbiant.”

By automating audit tracking activities and simplifying reporting workflows, Orbit Housing Group was able to improve visibility across audit recommendations while significantly reducing the administrative effort required to maintain reporting processes.
