Housing Systems Solutions, Inc. (HSS)

Mission

The mission of HSS is to improve the efficiency and outcomes of your operations by reducing administrative costs and providing better data for decision-making. It strives to be the business solution provider of choice for the public and affordable housing community.

A Comprehensive Product

HSS is developing a comprehensive software solution for your operations; allowing you to eliminate multiple, disconnected systems, and manual processes, through:

  • Support for the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program and project-based vouchers including, public housing, tax credit, and market rate units.
  • End-to end, fully-integrated support, from portals to intake through compliance and financial reporting.
  • A paperless and configurable workflow, self-service client and landlord portals, scheduling and forecasting tools, ad hoc reporting, and management metrics that provides insight into opportunities for improvement in your operations.
  • And best of all, this solution will reside in the “cloud,” reducing your need to invest in and support IT infrastructure, and allowing your employees and service providers to access it from anywhere.

A Different Company, A Different Approach

As a member-owned company, we are engaged in deep collaboration with our members to design a better way of doing things. We work together to develop a software solution that can adapt to these processes, instead of forcing your processes to adapt to the software. HSS values the relationships that HAI Group has built over their 25 years of service to the industry and intends to provide superb customer service through implementation and beyond.

As a part of this industry, we are outcome-driven, using an approach designed to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of your operations. First, we begin with an Operational Effectiveness Assessment, which benchmarks your metrics and processes against a baseline of other housing authorities. We work from our library of best practices to optimize your processes and configure our solution to most closely match your process. We then collaboratively plan for implementation, identifying, and planning to address the factors that commonly prevent organizations from achieving successful change. In the end, we revisit your metrics to measure the progress of our efforts.

Of course, all this is combined with the backing of an industry mainstay, whose housing authority member-owners participate in its financial success and whose mission and efforts are closely aligned with the mission of this industry.
