Inspace has three complementary areas of activity: social housing, affordable housing and corporate assets. Social Housing - creating and maintaining sustainable homes The division is one of the UK's leading specialist service providers to social housing landlords through long term framework contracts. Its services comprise major 'repair and maintenance', 'stock reinvestment' and new build programmes for local authorities, Arms Length Management Organisations (ALMO) and Registered Social Landlords (RSLs). Total spending on social housing is currently around £14 billion per annum, of which around £10.3 billion is spent on repair, maintenance and improvement. Of this, £4 billion is spent on ongoing repair and maintenance, with the remaining £6 billion being spent on capital projects such as major refurbishment and improvement. This includes a contribution of between £1 billion and £2 billion a year from the Decent Homes initiative. The provision of new housing, which is currently running at around 35,000 units a year, adds a further £3.5 billion to this sum. Affordable Housing - developing integrated communities The affordable housing division specialises in the provision of low cost homes for sale in partnership with RSLs, usually alongside social housing built by the Social Housing division, as part of more extensive mixed tenure schemes. It has already established a number of joint venture companies with RSLs and through its involvement in the Key London Alliance consortium, has been appointed to provide mixed tenure developments under the Government's London Wide Initiative. Corporate Assets - improving and maintaining public and private real estate The corporate assets division provides a comprehensive repair, maintenance, capital works and interior design service across public and private sector non-residential real estate. It delivers 24/7 integrated maintenance services across England, Scotland and Wales through its national network of branches and 'home based' mobile engineers. Its specialist design-led service offers customers an integrated interior design, installation and furnishing 'one stop' solution.
