2025-001 Recertifications 14.881 Moving to Work Demonstration Program – Award No. OCD26401344019MTW Responsible Official Sarah Scott Director of Leased Housing Plan Detail There has been a greater focus on ensuring new past dues (recertifications not completed on time) do not occur while we continue to resolve older ones. Starting with April 1, 2024 regular recertifications, we implemented a more rigorous monitoring process. The day after data entry for each recertification is due, the Director of Leased Housing generates a comprehensive report that consolidates information from multiple sources, including our software and internal tracking systems. Once verified, the Director provides these reports—including past-due recertifications from prior months—to managers for follow-up. Managers are responsible for ensuring the timely resolution of all cases on the report. Managers are held accountable for ensuring past-due cases do not reappear in subsequent months. Since the implementation of this process, we have seen a significant reduction in the number of past-due recertifications for assigned caseloads as management is proactive in ensuring no name, especially those on vacant caseloads due to numerous staff medical leaves, reaches that list. Additionally, as of October 2025, the Leased Housing Department will be operating within our new Yardi software system, a significant upgrade designed to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and user experience across all aspects of program administration. Yardi enables considerably faster processing times compared to our current platform, reducing the time needed to complete certifications, adjustments, and case updates. One of the most beneficial features of Yardi is its Recertification Dashboard, which provides staff with real-time visibility into upcoming deadlines, pending tasks, and the overall status of each case. The dashboard includes automated prompts and workflow reminders throughout the recertification process, ensuring staff stay on track and that each step is completed in sequence. In addition to speed and organization, Yardi offers enhanced data accuracy and integration capabilities, minimizing duplication and manual entry errors. These improvements will help staff manage their caseloads more effectively, provide more timely service to participants and property owners, and ensure compliance with program requirements. Anticipated Completion Date June 30, 2026 – Past due percentages will be lowered to acceptable levels with those outstanding being a result of the hearings and appeals process.
