Management Computer Services, Inc. (MCS)
is now offering PHA-Web, a new Internet based software
application for housing authorities. The Family Manager
is a component of PHA-Web.
The Family Manager lists in chronological order, all of
the actions for a tenant, from the initial application to the end of participation.
This includes items such as family waiting list applications, rent reasonableness
activility, HUD Form 50058 certifications, unit inspections, correspondence histories,
and vacated tenant actions.
The Family Manager utilizes a sophisticated search tool
to enable the user to research a specific tenant in the PHA-Web
database. Once the tenant's information is displayed, the user has the ability
to select any action for the purpose of viewing that tenant's details.
Incorporated in the Family Manager is bar code technology.
Scanning barcodes printed on forms produced by PHA-Web
provides quick access to family information.
The ability to create mass mailings to families is also provided as part of the
Family Manager through an interface with the Letter Manager.
Registration may be completed by contacting a PHA-Web representative
in our Wisconsin office at (608) 784-0354 or in our Rhode Island office at (401)
683-6133.
