Kier and Islington Phase 1 Completed
Friday, Nov 2007 09:18 | HUBSolutions News | Permalink
HUBSolutions completed Phase 1 of a contract with Kier plc to provide a tablet solution for surveyors working on Kier’s Islington Contract . The software allows surveyors to record all of the defects and raise necessary orders when inspecting empty properties. The system allows the user to code the requirements of each room in the property, using a Schedule of Rates, and allows the inclusion of a photograph. The data is held on the PC until it can be uploaded over the wireless network to the central database. Phase 2 – a matching desktop solution – is due in the New Year.

HUBSolutions to attend MAY ACPO conference
For those who failed to notice the garishly unmissable banner advert on the HUBS home page this April, you need your eyes tested. HUBSolutions has announced that it will be attending this years Association of Chief Police Officers Conference 2005 at the Birmingham NEC. In recent years the need for local councils and police to deal with the more everyday ASB related crimes has come along a great deal. Five years ago if asked if we ever thought we'd attend such a conference and of course the answer would be no.
The demands of the police have changed. Having realised that the Police are not traditionally used to dealing with lower level street crime on such a serious footing what better opportunity for us to show off our range of Caseworks Modules and our new Community Policing Module.
Six become Seven - Police Module launched
The latest edition to the HUBSolutions range of ASB products designed to effectively target ASB and Hate crime is the Community Policing Module. The CP module is currently in its building stages and will be developed as part of our ongoing commitment to working directly with the Police. The module will be developed with Strathclyde Police and North Ayrshire Council, Glasgow City Council and South Lanarkshire Council. The module is specifically designed to capture data not already held in other caseworks modules used by different agencies.
Scoping excercise for Glasgow ASB strategy
HUBSolutions has been commissioned to undertake a scoping exercise for the newly created anti-social behaviour task, run jointly by Glasgow City Council and Strathclyde Police.
Peter Hall and Claire Davies from HUBSolutions interviewed all the organisations that hold data about anti-social behaviour in Glasgow. This included the CCTV control centre, community wardens and the access centre. The report was presented to Glasgow City council earlier this month. It has been well received and HUBSolutions is currently negotiating further work in connection with its recommendations. Since then as a part of those negotiations, HUBSolutions has continued to develop the intelligence modele (i+) and has introduced an integrated mapping facility.

VS also incorporates all of the other PLUS features, like multi-agency working and unparalleled flexibility & security.
