Doctors can now cycle around London to treat homeless and marginalised patients via eco-tricycle, the UK’s first fold-out health clinic on wheels.

The tricycle, nicknamed the “Electric Trike”, will be used by the University College London Hospital’s “Find and Treat” team to screen and treat the most vulnerable of the UK’s population for illnesses including tuberculosis, HIV and Covid-19. According to the Evening Standard, a lack of documentation typically prevents these vulnerable communities from accessing a GP or visiting A&E, resulting in living with untreated illness. Outreach workers will be supporting the “Find and Treat” team by using their own experiences of homelessness to encourage others to use this service.

CACI is a proud sponsor of the eco-tricycle, and has supported the UCLH’s “Find and Treat” team by developing an application, ITRICS, that equips them with the latest secure connectivity and cloud technologies. This technical solution supports the workflow of a real-time end-to-end process from diagnosis to treatment, with ongoing enhancements to ITRICS projected to continue into summer 2023.

The “Find and Treat” team will now be able to deliver high-quality care to higher-risk communities in an eco-friendly capacity through these “smart connectivity” capabilities.

Lucy Sweatman, Education Programme Manager for Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council said:

“We’re looking forward to working with IMPULSE Nexus. Most importantly, the new system means we can increase the quality of the service we offer to children and families, enabling both authorities to improve their SEND processes, with input from all agencies into each child’s plans and provision. It will also make the whole process more efficient, bringing everything to do with SEND into a single view. This means we will be able to help children and young people with SEND in a more collaborative way, driving and enhancing the partnership working between schools, professionals, authorities and parents. This will make the process of recording outcomes and requirements much more straightforward, enabling us to act more swiftly and efficiently.” 

IMPULSE Nexus is made up of several modules, of which local authorities can use as many as they need to support their education services. Based upon an interoperable framework, IMPULSE Nexus modules can integrate with other services and providers to offer a joined-up view of each child and service. 

“We’re delighted that Cambridgeshire County Council and Peterborough City Council have both chosen IMPULSE Nexus SEND solutions to support their ongoing work in this vital area,” says Phil Lucy, Director of CACI’s Children and Young Person’s division. “By providing a fully auditable trail of activities, with the ability for all stakeholders to record information, IMPULSE Nexus will help both authorities to enhance their SEND processes and provide efficient and effective support to those children needing their services.” 

“We’re looking forward to getting started with ChildView and realising the benefits that it will bring for our service and the young people who we support,” says Simon Newling-Ward, service manager at Nottingham City Council Youth Justice Service. “We need a system that will support every aspect of our work. ChildView ticks this box and further enables us to share data seamlessly and fully with other youth justice teams. With young people often moving around, it is vital that we can receive accurate and complete data on them when they come under our auspices. At the same time, it’s equally important for us to be able to share the information that we have built on a young person’s journey if they move to another local authority, in order that they can continue to receive the best support possible.” 

“We are delighted that Nottingham City Council has chosen to utilise ChildView across its youth justice service,” says Phil Lucy, director, CACI’s Children and Young Persons’ team. “Working with a majority of youth justice services operating in England and Wales and their major cities, I feel that our team can support Nottingham City Council’s team and we’re excited to do just that.” 

The contract was awarded to CACI via the G Cloud framework. 

Conwy and Denbighshire Youth Justice Service has chosen ChildView from CACI to underpin its vital work in supporting young people in its services across both counties. Conwy and Denbighshire will use ChildView to support its team across the both regions, looking after the needs of young people in, and on the periphery of, the local youth justice system.

The move means that ChildView now underpins youth justice work across the whole of Wales, with all 22 local authorities now utilising the system to create positive changes across the country.

“We chose ChildView as the fit for purpose youth justice system that best meets our service requirements,” says Matt Morgan, Service Manager at Conwy and Denbighshire Youth Justice Service. “We are looking forward to using the system to enable us to improve outcomes for the children and young people that we work with.”

“We are delighted that Conwy and Denbighshire has chosen ChildView to support its vital work,” says Phil Lucy, Head of Children and Young People at CACI. “It is a great opportunity for us and, more broadly, youth justice services across Wales, that ChildView is now used universally across Wales. The data insights this will help Welsh authorities to build, will have a tangible impact on the outcomes experienced by vulnerable young people across the country.”

ChildView enables youth justice services to record the full range of multi-agency working, in-depth casework and chronologies (including Adverse Childhood Experience ACES). They can then securely share data on the young people in their services. It facilitates deeper insights into what is going on at an individual level, as well as holistically across services. This means that Welsh authorities, YJB Cymru and Government and local justice services can better understand their work and make informed decisions about effective response to each young person, as well as to prevent offending behaviour.

With ChildView being used across Wales, it means that authorities can easily and seamlessly share data and case files with one another. ChildView is interoperable with other systems, too, meaning that youth offending teams can share vital information with schools, building the evidence base and responses to offending behaviour which will help to prevent and reduce the impact of crime.

Solihull Council has chosen CACI’s ChildView youth justice software to underpin its youth justice work in the area. As part of the move to enhance engagement with young people and improve their outcomes, Solihull Council has sought to strategically evolve its services. Partnering with CACI will help Solihull Council in engaging with young people, recording their journeys and data mapping their outcomes for the benefit of all young people in their services.

ChildView will support Solihull’s youth justice practitioners by providing a holistic view of the council’s services. This will help Solihull’s youth justice team to efficiently and effectively deliver its vital frontline services, gaining deeper insight and understanding of the journeys it seeks to improve.

“Following a detailed consideration of the requirements for our Youth Offending Service, our engagement with young people and extensive market research, Solihull Council is pleased to announce CACI as our new Youth Justice partner,” says Zubair Afzal, consultant programme manager ant Solihull Council. “We look forward to delivering an improved Youth Justice offer in collaboration with CACI.”

“We’re delighted that Solihull Council has chosen our ChildView youth justice software to underpin its vital service delivery,” says Phil Lucy, director of CACI’s Children & Young Person’s division. “It’s an exciting opportunity for us to expand upon our service delivery in the West Midlands and support Solihull Council in evolving and enhancing its service delivery to vulnerable young people.”

We’re proud to announce that we have achieved a silver award in the 2021 Defence Employer Recognition Scheme (ERS).

ERS is a UK government award programme designed to encourage employers (particularly those in the private sector) to support defence and inspire others to do the same.

As a silver award-holder, CACI is recognised for being armed-forces friendly, with a positive policy on employing reservists, veterans, cadet instructors and military spouses and partners.

Beverley Heath, Chief of Staff at CACI, says: “We’re proud to have moved up from a bronze to a silver award level this year, by increasing our active support and advocacy for services colleagues within CACI.

“We value the transferrable skills that people with a military career background bring to the private sector. Our team delivers leading specialist solutions to many Defence organisations, so we’re highly aware of the diverse talent and capability in the sector. It’s a privilege to work with people from this background both as clients and colleagues.”

The Armed Forces Covenant shows employers’ support for the armed forces community. CACI has signed this pledge to be flexible to the unique situations of the wider armed forces community, including spouses, partners, volunteers and reservists, ensuring their fair treatment in recruitment processes and in the workplace.

We provide a range of specialist software, technology, cybersecurity, data and digital transformation services to the Ministry of Defence and to related organisations. Our team’s in-depth defence domain knowledge is enhanced by the contribution of talented armed forces community colleagues.

“I am so pleased that your hard work and commitment to the Defence Partnership has paid off and been recognised in this way,” said Gill Niblock, Regional Employer Engagement Director at the Ministry of Defence.

We are delighted to announce that CACI’s Cygnum workforce management software has been listed as an approved solution on the Health Systems Support Framework (HSSF). Operated by NHS England, the HSSF is a group of associated procurement frameworks to support delivery of integrated care, digitisation of the NHS and scaling of innovation by providing a marketplace of approved providers for NHS bodies to work with.

The addition of new workforce deployment service lines focus on eRostering, job planning and temporary staffing solutions. This will help the NHS become a truly modern employer by enabling evidence-based change and utilising best practice in workforce management, deployment and development of staff. The aim is that all workforce systems purchased and used by NHS organisations will meet national data and interoperability standards.

CACI’s Cygnum workforce management software is utilised by a number of public and third sector care organisations to help optimise and automate service delivery and support excellent patient care.

eRostering is core functionality in Cygnum, with the software allowing resources to be intelligently mapped to demand. Demand can be driven by patient needs, be this task-based from a patient care plan, or based on physical occupancy such as wards and rooms.

Cygnum ensures job plans are in place by recording assessments, training and competencies effectively and considering these against patient pathway demand and organisational needs.

Cygnum also meets the requirements of temporary staffing, ensuring an efficient and controlled process from first application, recording of training and competency, to staff rostering and self-management.

Birmingham City Council has trained its 150th school as part of a city-wide school admissions digital transformation. The council is introducing a real-time online admissions portal, powered by the IMPULSE platform from CACI, and plans to have every school within the authority ready to use the system by the end of the year.

The new admissions portal was designed in collaboration with over 20 local schools and promises significant efficiency, quality and safeguarding benefits. It provides a shared, end-to-end dashboard for all parties – schools, council, parents, agencies – involved in the admissions process.

Information is updated in real-time and instantly accessible by all. Integrated and streamlined workflows allow decision-making processes which used to take weeks to be completed in minutes, allowing authorities to allocate staff and resources more efficiently.

The previous system saw all applications, rankings and correspondence managed manually, with the council using several disconnected offline spreadsheets to store information. Labour-intensive, slow, prone to human error, and rarely up to date, the process was very inefficient.

Sue Houghton, School IT/Data And Fair Access Manager, Birmingham City Council explains:

After engaging with several internal stakeholders, technical experts and management, Sue Houghton and her team secured funding from the council cabinet to work with CACI to create a bespoke, end-to-end, admissions process. The council also invited periodic feedback and testing from 20 different schools in the city as the system was designed and developed.

After taking delivery of the portal from CACI in late summer 2019, the council began a comprehensive training program for its 400 schools. The portal provides shared access to real-time admissions information, records and child status, visible to all parties and stakeholders.

Terry Lovegrove, Implementation Consultant, CACI explains:

The IMPULSE-based portal also helps school and council admissions teams better manage their workflow, by processing applications and referrals on an ongoing basis, rather than in batches. The automated system has been used to process over 14,000 primary and 16,000 secondary applications in the first six months of use.
