Restore outcomes monitoring system

Restore has a number of different funders. Each has different requirements for reporting on measures of success. They needed to replace several unwieldy spreadsheets with a database.

The brief

Restore wanted an outcomes monitoring system to track the activities undertaken with their clients. They wanted the system to be as simple as possible. The users would be employees working from home who needed a web front end. They wanted the reporting to be very easy

What we did

We had a number of meetings to understand their requirements. Then we produced a specification. The design included the flexibility to change the reports by specifying on a screen which fields were to be included. We agreed which data would be migrated.

Features

Functionality includes:

  • Capturing client information
  • Recording their activities
  • Recording attendance at training and courses
  • Recording outcomes such as qualifications and work placement
  • A reminders system to ensure that regular activities are done and recorded.
  • Reports for funders
  • Ad-hoc queries for administration use.
  • Exception reports to improve data quality
  • Administration screens for the static data e.g. list of funders

Technical notes

The web front end is written in ASP.NET. Office users also have an Access front end. The database is SQL Server.

Testimonials

“We're very pleased with the system. It has saved literally days of staff time every month and has paid for itself already in the six months since we started using it.”
