Grifo Developments and MRI Software announce partnership


MRI Software will become the new software partner of Grifo Developments with five-year deal.

Grifo Developments announced a new partnership with MRI Software today, bringing the best of MRI Software’s products and technology to the Kent-based developer’s growing portfolio of Build-to-Rent (BTR) assets.

Grifo will use a selection of MRI Software solutions across its operations at construction sites, completed neighbourhoods and the Grifo Performance Centre to help operate more effectively and boost productivity. This includes MRI Qube Property Management, MRI Engage and MRI Sales & Lettings.

During isolated tests and demonstrations over the past two years, MRI Software proved it could deliver infrastructure that supported Grifo’s journey to vertically integrate its key business units. The resident portal that comes as part of MRI Engage will provide intelligent workflow handling and automation, helping to deliver a first-in-class resident experience with maximum efficiency.

In addition, Grifo will leverage MRI Qube PM’s property management and accounting functions to help streamline maintenance and repairs to its estate. The partnership will ensure full regulatory compliance whilst measuring cost and quality performance.

Matthew Bates, Director of Grifo Developments, said:

We’re delighted to confirm our partnership with one of the industry’s most recognisable brands, ahead of rollout in early 2025. Thanks to this partnership, we will complete our journey to being vertically integrated, helping drive high performance across the group
