Summary of Requirements
Keeping residents safe is a priority for us and following a recent regulatory downgrade we are seeking an asset compliance management solution that enables proactive, automated, and auditable management of statutory compliance across our asset portfolio, supporting current "Big 6" compliance areas and future expansion.
- Compliance Automation & Scheduling
| • | Automatically validate asset/component data against compliance requirements (using a master data source) |
| • | Schedule inspections and servicing based on configurable business rules (e.g. gas, electrical cycles) |
| • | Automatically trigger next due dates following completion of inspections |
| • | Provide operational alerts for upcoming, due, and overdue activities |
- Certificate & Data Intelligence
| • | Automate ingestion and reading of compliance certificates/reports (across all Big 6 areas) |
| • | Validate certificate data to confirm accuracy, completeness, and compliance |
| • | Analyse certificate outputs to identify required remedial actions |
- Remedial Action Management
| • | Automatically generate remedial actions from inspection/certificate outcomes |
| • | Enable actions to: |
| o | Create internal tasks for colleagues, or |
| o | Generate work orders (via integrated system) for external suppliers (e.g. for quotation/works) |
| • | Support end-to-end traceability, including reconciliation of completion certificates back to the original inspection |
- Workflow Automation & Exception Management
| • | End-to-end configurable workflows for inspections, certificates, remedials, approvals, exceptions, and closures |
| • | Rules-based automated routing by compliance type, geography, risk, contractor, or team |
| • | Exception queues for: |
| o | failed validations |
| o | unmatched certificates |
| o | duplicate records |
| o | overdue actions |
| o | disputed completions |
| o | incomplete submissions |
| • | Automated escalations to named roles based on SLA or risk thresholds |
| • | Approval workflows for high-risk actions, overrides, waivers, or manual date changes |
- Compliance Status Reporting
| • | Provide real-time compliance status reporting |
| • | Track work order status alongside compliance status |
- Mobile & Data Capture

- Integration & Architecture
| • | Integrate seamlessly with Anchor's enterprise integration layer (Azure) and surrounding systems |
| • | Support integration with: |
| o | master asset/property/component data source |
| o | work order management system |

| • | Ensure data exchanged between systems is in line with audit and traceability requirements defined in Section 11 |
- Availability & Performance
| • | Be available and accessible to Anchor colleagues for the stated availability targets. The availability target offered by the solution should be made clear at the point of pre-market engagement (E.G 99.9%, 99.99% etc). Anchor will seek assurances through our non-functional requirements of the ability to monitor and report upon solution availability over the course of the solution lifecycle. |
| • | Support up to 2000 concurrent users with transaction volumes (includes document uploads) volumes of approx. 170,000+ per annum without material degradation in performance. Anchor will seek assurances through our non-functional requirements of the ability to monitor and report upon solution capacity and performance over the course of the solution lifecycle. |
| • | Standard user interactions and dashboard load times shall perform within agreed response time thresholds. Anchor will seek assurances through our non-functional requirements of the ability to monitor and report upon system transactions performance over the course of the solution lifecycle. |
- User Experience / Usability

| • | Visibility across all assets, compliance types, properties, and sites providing search, filtering, and drill-down functionality across large volumes of records |
| • | Clear visual indicators for risk, overdue status, missing evidence, and non-compliance |

- Reliability
| • | Provide resilient processing for integrations, workflows, and document ingestion, including retries and recovery from transient failures. |
| • | No compliance-critical transaction shall be lost without detection, system alerting, and recovery capability. |
