Effective management of layered subsidies key to Texarkana’s Yardi Voyager decision
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Dec. 16, 2021 – The Housing Authority of the City of Texarkana, Arkansas (HATA) manages more than a thousand units and vouchers funded by subsidies with complex process for compliance, resident service delivery, accounting and property management.
HATA will simplify those processes with Yardi Voyager PHA, its newly selected technology and service delivery platform.
Yardi Voyager PHA is a comprehensive software platform for public housing agencies. It supports every major PHA role and department and eliminates the need to contract with multiple software vendors.
“We found that Yardi Voyager PHA is the only software solution that effectively manages layered subsidies. Voyager will streamline communication between our voucher and property management departments, and simplify and strengthen oversight of our properties and programs,” said Brandy Bradley, executive director of HATA.
HATA’s platform will include paperless housing applications and waiting list management with RentCafe PHA. “RentCafe will provide exactly what our residents and participants have been asking for: self-service portals to do things like pay rent, complete intake, annual and interim certifications and easily communicate with our staff,” said Bradley.
HATA also looks to resolve accounts payable challenges with Yardi Procure to Pay, which offers electronic invoicing, flexible approval workflows, and a mobile app for viewing, reviewing and approving purchase orders.
“We look forward to seeing our technology, service and industry leadership assist HATA to boost its work with staff, vendors, landlords and the residents and participants they serve,” said Chris Voss, vice president of PHA and affordable housing sales for Yardi.
