The Golden Thread of Safety, introduced under the Building Safety Act 2022, is now a legal requirement. It creates a secure digital record that captures and tracks building data throughout its entire lifecycle – from planning and construction to occupation and ongoing maintenance.
But here’s the reality:
You can’t meet the Golden Thread of Safety requirements without clean, consistent, and accurate address data.
The Hidden Risks of Poor Address Data
For many social housing providers, legacy issues with property records create serious challenges:
- Inconsistent address formats across different systems
- Duplicate records that cause confusion and inefficiency
- Missing or incorrect UPRNs (Unique Property Reference Numbers)
- Data inherited from mergers or outdated systems
These aren’t just administrative frustrations. They can directly impact compliance with the Building Safety Act, putting organisations at risk of failing to meet their legal obligations.
