Existing Mendix Platform Application Case Study - Early Years Application

Co-designed with health visiting and Early Years services across Greater Manchester, the Early Years App digitises the paper-based assessments and manual processes currently used to review a child's development.

The Early Years App enables parents and carers of children across Greater Manchester a way to complete relevant assessments digitally and ensures that parents and carers have access to both completed assessments and other supporting information completed by the professional and gives the user much more control over their own data. An integrated online portal offers video guidance to support children's learning and development.

The app offers better identification of support and facilitates automated sharing of data, with relevant professionals, enabling more timely identification of required support and reduces duplication of effort.

In some parts of Greater Manchester, the app is now live in early education settings, also giving local authority practitioners the ability to complete WellComm assessment forms digitally. This means we're increasing the age range of children in these areas being supported via the Early Years app, with a reach now up to primary school age.

Existing Application Case Study - Victims Gateway

The Victims Gateway is a digital solution that transforms the way victims and survivors access, engage and interact with victims services across Greater Manchester in a way that reflects the journey of a victim, and enables better use of data to inform decision-making.

This digital solution puts the needs of the victim front and centre, allowing them to track and manage their own service journey, as well as access services at a time convenient to them, with the flexibility to engage and re-engage over time as their needs change.

The Victims Gateway has been developed using the Microsoft Power Platform (Power Pages, Power Apps and Dataverse). While there is support for the Victims Gateway in the medium term, it is expected that some support and future development of the Victims Gateway will form part of this contract.
