HOUSING ASSOCIATIONS
You provide homes and hope.
We help you do both better.
You work every day to deliver safe, affordable homes and vital support services for your tenants and communities.
Crimson helps housing providers achieve this mission more efficiently and responsibly by combining deep housing-sector expertise with Microsoft and AI capabilities that turn complex operational challenges into measurable social impact.
You face challenges that no housing provider can ignore
Housing providers are under intense scrutiny, from rising repair costs and regulatory pressure to growing tenant expectations. You're balancing social purpose with financial performance in an environment where every decision matters.
- Ageing systems make it hard to see the full picture across repairs, compliance, and tenant engagement.
- Manual processes slow down decision-making, impacting service quality.
- Stretched teams across repairs and maintenance.
- Rising tenant expectations, including faster communication and more personalised support.
- Governance and readiness questions around the AI and data opportunity.
At Crimson, we understand the complexity of managing social housing operations. We help you modernise responsibly, ensuring your digital transformation delivers measurable improvements for both tenants and teams.

Peabody
Challenge: Disconnected systems and manual processes slowed sales progression, reduced visibility, and made it hard to scale customer journeys.
Result: Microsoft Dynamics 365 unified sales and marketing, reducing duplication, improving data confidence, and enabling a more transparent, self-service customer experience.
“It's a game changer. It saves time, reduces errors, and lets us act like a private developer—while staying true to our purpose.”Tom Leslie, Peabody
Phoenix Housing
Challenge: A large, unstructured image archive made GDPR compliance slow, manual, and increasingly unmanageable.
Result: An automated Azure-based solution now identifies and classifies images at scale, saving time while maintaining ongoing GDPR compliance.
“Thank you to Crimson for their responsiveness, expertise and technical support."Mike Wooderson, Phoenix Community Housing
Great Places
Challenge: Disparate systems and manual reporting made it hard to produce timely, reliable insights or maintain a single version of the truth.
Result: A cloud-based data platform and Power BI now deliver faster, trusted reporting, enabling self-service insights and more confident decision-making.
