Housing Software

A Texas agency is seeking a vendor to provide housing software that supports agency-wide operations and data-driven decision-making. The system must comply with federal and state privacy protection regulations and provide self-service access for applicants, tenants, and employees. The requested solution should also integrate with an electronic document management system and support reporting with customized reports and letters, integrated database fields, filtering, barcodes, and tracking.

The software is expected to include financial applications such as general ledger support for multiple asset management project accounts and checking accounts, bank reconciliation, budgeting, accounts payable, tenant billing, and capital fund management. Additional functional areas include applicant waiting list and unit management, low-income public housing tenant and property management, work order management with a mobile application, utility tracking and management with a mobile application, procurement with purchase order capabilities and AMP-based cost separation, and inventory control with low-stock alerts. Desired features also include website management, an online resident portal, integration with online banking applications, direct payroll support, integrated document imaging, document signing for multiple forms, and online housing applications.

The selected vendor will also be responsible for project management, including data conversion from the existing system, installation, implementation, and testing of the software and the agency computer network hardware environment. Training must be provided for agency staff at end-user, intermediate, and technical levels so the agency can operate independently. Questions are due by September 17, 2026, and the anticipated contract term is three years.
