These nine modules are documented and ready on day one. Anything your service reports on that is not here is built on the same framework, as part of the same subscription — this is where we start, not where we stop.

What it takes from you

Not much, and nothing to prepare

We have built children's social care analytics many times before, so we are not starting from a blank page and neither are you. The framework already knows how this service works and where the statutory returns come from. What it needs from you is a little time and your local knowledge.

  • Read-only access, granted once Your IT team sets it up in an afternoon. We read; nothing is ever written back to your systems.
  • A few hours of testing An analyst and a service lead look at the first cut and tell us where a number does not look like theirs. That is the whole of it.
  • Your local definitions Every council counts things a little differently. We tune the framework to how you do it — localising what already exists, not building something new.

There is no data warehouse to stand up first, no discovery phase, and nothing for your team to get ready before we start.

Microsoft Fabric, Power BI and Databricks for children's social care, fully managed. If you are on Microsoft, the accelerator is deployed into Microsoft Fabric in your own tenancy, and the children's social care reports land in the Power BI your people already use. Where a Databricks lakehouse suits your estate better, it runs on Databricks instead — and on AWS or Google Cloud if that is your cloud. Either way it is a managed service: we run the platform, the refreshes and the changes your service asks for, so your team uses the reporting rather than maintaining it.

Whatever system your data is in. The framework is source-system agnostic. It reads from the children’s case management system you already run, and from the other systems that hold part of the picture, and joins them into one view.
