Face to face/phone/webchat Frontline teams use customer service automation to free up time for complex cases Support multi-agency working with shared information amongst appropriate professionals Capita One View information from police and 3rd sector services Welcome to Capita One View educational data, including from Capita SIMS Powerful analytics to target resources and monitor performance Identify the most vulnerable, target early help and improve outcomes. Enable marketshaping by predicting the need for services We re in an age of digital transformation, with emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, headless user interfaces and smart sensors already revolutionising how we live and work. These new technologies are also starting to be adopted by local authorities and housing organisations as they seek solutions to help them deliver high quality services which make a difference. At Capita One, we re in the unique position of touching nearly every element of local government and housing jurisdiction.

3 Deliver better services Achieve better outcomes Make it easier for citizens to access services Self-service options Monitor performance and understand where to target resources ease pressure bring services closer to A comprehensive view of predictive = on resources + your communities a child, family or customer + analytics = insight for informed decisions Drive a digital first culture by offering intuitive self-service apps and portals which citizens are comfortable using, freeing your teams to focus on delivering high quality frontline services. From school admissions and transport, to online social housing repairs management, to council tax payments and benefits applications, you can make it possible for citizens to access services easily, at a time that suits them. Customisable self-serve options, designed to be used across multiple platforms and devices including smartphones, tablets and games consoles, remove the need for onerous data-entry and help speed up decision-making. When your digital transformation touches on several areas of your organisation, further valuable benefits can be realised such as single sign-on, where customers use one login to access a range of services. Nearly 900,000 parents applied online for a 2017 school place using Capita s One School Admissions Portal Machine learning - when computers learn and make predictions from data without being specifically programmed - is already embedded in our everyday lives, offering recommendations we now take for granted. Predictive analytics offers powerful potential for organisations providing public and community services, to reveal trends, highlight who needs additional support, and show where the gaps are in services - crucial when you re faced with limited resources and need to know each service is having a positive impact. From understanding where a child would benefit from early help, to seeing how elderly people can be supported to live independently and knowing if a tenant needs support with their rent, you can better support your most vulnerable communities. How it works a day in the life of a director of children and families services My analytics dashboard draws on all the information in One gathered by the different agencies and departments to provide reports which uncover the stories behind children and young people behaviours. Such strategic analytics enables me to understand trends, such as over-representation in youth justice and unemployment. Heat maps show areas particularly affected so we can target prevention resources. Moving online has cut the number of late applications for school places. Information is captured automatically too, so there is no longer any need to spend time re-keying data into the system. The whole process is slicker and the equivalent of two months work has been saved for a full-time member of staff, who can now spend more time on other tasks. Councillor Tim Swift, leader of Calderdale Council How it works an early warning system to avoid homelessness Sometimes tenants fall into arrears and into homelessness because they struggle to manage a budget. With predictive analytics, social landlords can see early if a tenant is facing increased financial stress and can mitigate the risk of arrears with support, perhaps suggesting a payment plan or debt counselling. Providing help before people reach crisis point ensures a steady flow of rental income and encourages citizens to remain in control of their finances, contributing to a better quality of life. I can learn about over-representation of cohorts, such as young people who are looked-after or with SEND, by simply dragging and dropping the cohorts I wish to investigate on my dashboard. With this information at my fingertips, I can understand what lies behind offending and disengagement and monitor service delivery so resources can be targeted to improve outcomes.
