Compliance software for housing associations and local authorities

GRC Assured gives housing associations, local authorities and property compliance teams one place to test controls, hold evidence, own actions and report assurance — replacing spreadsheets, shared drives and email chasing with a defensible second-line record.

01 · The problem

The evidence is real. It’s just scattered.

Compliance work is happening — but across spreadsheets, shared drives, inboxes and individual memory. When scrutiny arrives, the effort is real but the evidence is hard to assemble, and ownership is unclear.

Where teams are now
Spreadsheets and manual trackers
Shared drives and scattered files
Email chasing for updates
Weak or missing evidence trails
Ownership held in people’s heads
Where GRC Assured takes them

03 · Outcomes

From activity to assurance

The same compliance effort, re-framed as a defensible second-line record — so the work you already do becomes evidence you can stand behind.

Structured second-line assurance
Controls are tested and rated, independent of first-line self-reporting.
Clearer ownership & accountability
Every finding becomes an owned action with a named lead and due date.
Stronger, attached evidence
Records sit against the findings they support, not in scattered folders.
Live visibility of risk
RAG status and assurance ratings update as work is completed and approved.
Faster scrutiny preparation
Board, committee and regulator packs draw from one live source.
One source of truth
Audits, findings, actions and evidence held together and traceable.
04 · Key solutions

Two pressures we’re built for

Whether the trigger is the Regulator or the internal auditor, the underlying need is the same — evidence you can produce on demand, with ownership and a trail behind it.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Who is GRC Assured for?

Housing associations, registered providers, local authorities and property compliance teams — along with building safety teams, health and safety teams, internal audit and risk teams, action owners, executives, boards and councillors.

What is housing association compliance software?

Software that helps housing providers evidence and oversee compliance across statutory safety and consumer-standards obligations. GRC Assured provides this as a second-line assurance platform.

Is GRC Assured a certificate tracker?

No. First-line systems log whether checks happened; GRC Assured tests whether the work was done properly, evidences it, and reports the assurance position — a second line of defence.

Do we need to replace our existing systems?

No. GRC Assured complements first-line and operational systems, sitting above them to test quality, evidence oversight and report assurance.
