PICS
Pellcomp Software Ltd, supply their PICS (Providers' Integrated Client System) to over 450 providers nationwide. The learner progression and tracking software is used on DWP, SFA, ESF and a whole host of other provisions.
Management Information Systems are vital to managing performance and achieving results. But systems are only as good as the information you put in and your ability to pull relevant information out. Many DWP providers under utilise the system, and would be surprised by how much more it can do for them, if only someone would show them. Well ... you've guessed it ... we can show you!
Our consultants have worked with PICS at practitioner and management level on DWP, SFA, ESF and private provisions, and have extensive knowledge of how the system can be set up and used to maximise the tools available to support programme delivery and management.
Specialising in the DWP aspects of the system (although happy to support in other areas), we can show you how to:
- set up fields and codes to meet your individual organisation's needs
- produce ILPs and reviews from the system
- use the system for effective caseload management
- email clients from the PICS system (and SMS text message via an optional add on)
- use the system to produce your end of month claim (reducing time and paperwork)
- how to develop ad hoc queries to make sure you get the information out that you want
- walk you through aspects of various optional add ons such as E-Assessor and client surveys
- provide advice and support on how best to utilise the system,
- provide practical support with setting the system up to meet your requirements,
- develop and deliver staff training (group or one to one) using you own system,
- develop guidance notes and handbooks to support your own training and development, and
- provide a validation checking service.
