| Interview with: |
Donald Notice, Executive Director |
| Why did you decide to
hire PHSI?
"In 1997 we were having problems with our back office.
Our rent receipts weren't going out on time, and we didn't
have a clear understanding of our arrears. We wanted Phipps
to take it over, figure out what was going wrong, and give
us a quick fix to the problem. That's what they did."
What has been your experience with PHSI?
"Now the reports come in on time, and the rent statements
go out on time. The [BJ Murray] system is a sophisticated
system, and as our organization grows, we get new training
[from Phipps] on new things. For example, now we're looking
to tie in a new tenant legal system into our other information
systems. People on both sides have been very helpful in this
effort, and in always trying to make things work better for
us." |
