Everything Tradelynx does / Councils that manage their own homes
What Tradelynx does for councils that manage their own homes
For councils with their own housing stock: every statutory duty for every home, resident hazard reports on the Awaab's Law clock, Tenant Satisfaction Measures from your own records, and the evidence behind each one. It is a landlord's workspace for the homes you manage, not a regulator's tool.
A council with its own housing stock gets every statutory duty per home resolved by the compliance engine, resident damp, mould and emergency reports on the Awaab's Law clock, Tenant Satisfaction Measures built from its own records, contractor dispatch and scorecards, and evidence exports. It is a landlord's workspace, not a regulator's.

1. What you can do
- Statutory compliance calendar. Every statutory duty across your properties (gas, electrical, EPC, fire, legionella, asbestos, lifts, building safety) bucketed overdue, missing, due soon and upcoming, with a per-property list, evidence grades and one-click official checks.
- Awaab's Law hazard clock. A resident's damp, mould or emergency report opens a case with the statutory deadlines computed (24 hours for emergencies; investigate, summarise, repair for damp and mould), live breach state, hourly escalation and a kept case log.
- Asset register and planned maintenance. Register maintainable assets per building with make, model, install date and cadence; assets drive the statutory calendar and a PPM schedule that rolls forward when a service is recorded; a due item becomes a case in one click.

2. What it costs
Workspace pricing is agreed per organisation and published when live; the priced lines below charge only when priced, activated and above their data threshold.
Every price on this page is resolved from the one pricing source at the moment the page is served; a line charges only when it is priced, activated and above its data threshold, and until then it says so.
3. Where the data comes from
- Register. Read from an official register (the EPC register, HM Land Registry Price Paid, the Environment Agency, Historic England, Companies House, the FCA register) and shown as the register's own, with its reference.
- Platform-verified. Recorded by the platform as it happened: a job completed and confirmed through Tradelynx, a payment it processed, an identity or credential it checked, a consent it logged.
- User-entered. Entered by the person it belongs to and shown as their declaration; graded Unconfirmed until evidenced, and excluded from third-party reports until then.
- Derived. Computed from the records above by a stated method (a score, a forecast, a due date); labelled indicative, never a quote or a verdict.
4. What it does not do
- This is a workspace for the homes a council manages as landlord. It is not a regulator's tool: there is no licensing register, no enforcement case and no view of privately rented homes.
- Compliance status is surfaced from the records held, not guaranteed: a missing certificate is shown as missing, never assumed.
- The Tenant Satisfaction Measures view is a submission aid, not a regulatory return, and shows 'no data' where a stream has no records.
- The Awaab's Law clock is an operational aid, not legal advice.
- No published price yet: what is live and why the rest is free is stated on the enterprise pricing page.
Questions councils ask
Is this for our licensing or enforcement work?
No. It is a workspace for the homes a council manages as landlord. There is no licensing register, no enforcement case and no view of privately rented homes.
Does Awaab's Law apply to council homes here?
Yes. A resident's damp, mould or emergency report opens a hazard case on the same clock a housing association uses, with the next deadline shown on each case. It is an operational aid, not legal advice.
Can we bring our existing stock in?
Yes. Import your homes from a CSV file or pasted text, and the compliance engine resolves every statutory duty for each one with its due date.
What does it cost?
Workspace pricing is agreed per organisation. The separately priced lines charge only when they are priced, switched on and above their data threshold.
