Public Sector case studies
NHS NSS – Supporting the Digital Workplace with a SharePoint Intranet
Bridgeall designed and built a SharePoint platform customised to meet the specific user and business needs within NHS NSS and subsequently made a significant contribution to their strategic objectives of reducing the amount of staff time spent on administrative tasks, improving customer engagement and providing the development team with a single, efficient communications channel.
NHS NES – Job Re-Evaluation Platform Development for the NHS
Bridgeall delivered a solution architecture that considered the functional requirements of the system and requirements for integration into NHS Education for Scotland’s Turas Digital platform. The first phase of work engaged with the wider stakeholder community in NHS Scotland and identified a prioritised backlog of functionality that could be delivered, along with non-functional and data-migration requirements.
NHS NES – Supporting Professional Career Development in the NHS
The NES Nursing and Midwifery Career-long ePortfolio system allowed practitioners to record evidence of continuing professional development on an electronic platform however this system was not intuitive which meant that many health professionals did not use it and went back to paper-based re-validation.
Bridgeall was engaged by the Digital team at NHS Education for Scotland (NES Digital) to develop a new web application. Working closely with the NES product owners and UX team to refine user stories and develop appealing visual designs, the new system allowed users to generate evidence for re-validation in many formats, e.g. various forms, file uploads and professional details. The resulting application has been enhanced twice and is currently being used by 25,000 users.
Forest Research – A Modern Intranet Supporting Sustainable Forestry
Forest Research is the UK’s principal organisation for forestry and tree-related research, internationally renowned for the provision of evidence and scientific services in support of sustainable forestry. The organisation had an urgent requirement for a new Intranet to support its digital transformation journey.
Bridgeall successfully engaged with the internal Forest Research management team to deliver a Modern SharePoint Intranet including design, build, CMS, collaborative spaces, document management, governance, migration plan and post-launch support.
Bridgeall has subsequently provided governance and guidance around Office 365, Teams and SharePoint usage within the organisation.
