Sponsored by Tracey Hyslop in Children's Services, and led by Katy Halls in Digital Services, the project – 'social care case management information gathering AI tool' – was focused on improving how children’s social care colleagues analyse and summarise complex case records. This often takes lots of time, simply collating information from a variety of sources before the important analysis can begin.
The project was evaluated at Amazon's HQ in London on 26 March against other councils' submissions to determine whether it successfully reduced the administrative burden, improved the quality of chronologies and case reviews, and supported faster, more informed decision‑making, and we're thrilled to announce that Derbyshire's submission won!
Many congratulations to Katy Halls, Tracey Hyslop, Deb Ashley, and members of Children's Services who were involved.
