Description

The Agency for Co-operative Housing is requesting qualifications from suppliers with relevant expertise for the provision of data processing services.

The Agency for Co-operative Housing is a non-governmental, not-for-profit organization created to provide program-management services to Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) and other government clients. Under a service agreement with CMHC, the Agency administers agreements entered between CMHC and housing co-operatives in Prince Edward Island, Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia and rent supplement programs in PEI and Ontario.

The Agency’s approach is risk-based, data-driven and client-focused. Using data filed online by clients through an annual reporting process, the Agency monitors client performance, giving special attention to those in difficulty or at risk. Every year, each Agency client receives a suite of plain-language reports on its performance. The reports turn client data into valuable information presented in a reader-friendly way.

Data is collected through a web-based customer information system developed by the Agency: Co-operative Housing Agency Information System, or CHAIS.

The Agency must provide CMHC with reports on the different housing co-operative programs that it administers. These reports include the Biannual Report on the Portfolio (“Portfolio Report”) and the Rent Supplement Portfolio Report (“RS Report”). Examples of these reports can be found here. The Agency anticipates further reports to be developed, including a report for a new Rental Assistance housing program. All reports rely extensively on data from CHAIS.

Currently, the work to extract data from CHAIS, process the raw data into a more usable form, analyse the data and develop graphs, charts and summaries for the Portfolio Report and the RS Report is all performed by Agency staff. The Agency is looking to contract a qualified firm/individual to carry out the step of processing raw data from CHAIS and converting it into a more useable format.
