Planning

Planning service
Yes
How the planning service works
We offer Trial access to our Cloud Software services, to allow customers to evaluate them, before committing to rollout as Cloud services (Community or Private Cloud). The primary service of our Digital Innovation Platform is PANACEA, an openEHR-based clinical record application. PANACEA supports care through integrated and federated information, liberating data from proprietary systems into open-system clinical records and capable of operating across organisations (for example, Integrated Care Systems, or regional/national tertiary-secondary care clinical networks).
Other platforms we provide include the XetaBase advanced genomics management (Zetta Genomics), Clinical Decision Support applications (Cambio), and AI applications (generated using the Jiva.AI platform). Future Perfect integrates these platforms and applications with PANACEA to provide true end-to-end clinical workflows and clinical research pathways. This, then, enables genomic analyses, CDS and AI to work together immediately.
We include all aspects of planning, implementing, engaging and evaluating Trials, also planning for full implementation. Our support services include clinical safety assurance of our and other vendors’ digital implementations, provided by leading clinical (medical and nursing) safety experts. We also offer a comprehensive Benefits Framework: stakeholder engagement, business case, deployment, realisation, and evaluation.

Fighting climate change

Future Perfect recognises the importance of environmental protection and is proud to be an exemplar company in this regard. We have an Environmental Policy and we strive to live by it.

Virtually all customer meetings are held using MS Teams, rather than face to face. We find this to be considerably more efficient for both parties, as well as removing what had been excessive car-driving all over the country. When on-site working is unavoidable, we encourage the use of public transport or car-share.

Future Perfect is fast-growing and not all internal team-building and skills acquisition can be done from home via Microsoft Teams. However, we will resist acquiring or renting central offices and will rely instead on ad-hoc office hire for very specific activities.

It is difficult to conceive of any obvious means to measure the metric of “car miles saved”, although the principal officers of the company are fully familiar with what our industry did typically in driving often large distances most days. Our estimate for this purpose would, in the past, have been an average of at least 600 miles per week per WTE. In our published Carbon Reduction Plan, we estimate all work-generated car or public transport travel to be less than 90 miles per month per WTE. This represents a cut of 96%.

To make this an accountable commitment, we require all staff to maintain records of all work-related travel, recording whether this was by car or public transport (this is needed for their expense claims, anyway). These figures will be used in our CRP assessment and will allow our Board to add travel monitoring to evidence our Environmental Policy.

Tackling economic inequality

Future Perfect is proposing to motivate and then, support pupils pursuing their careers. Our idea is to start with career talks about the digital health technology industry and then to work with those pupils interested in digital healthcare technology. We would also seek to involve contributors from our NHS customer organisations.

At the high ability end, this could involve our Data Science team members introducing pupils to AI programming. In the health context, this will include raising awareness of ethical issues of using AI in healthcare.

At the opposite end we can, for example, work with pupils to become more aware “healthcare consumers”, e.g. able to use online patients’ booking systems, or have ability to undertake simple research into their healthcare needs or those of a friend or family member.

With both of these examples, we will create opportunity to co-imagine with pupils what healthcare jobs of the future might look like and what skills these might need. For those moving onto further education, these discussions should not only inform and better prepare them for making their initial steps and choices; it should also make them more convincingly fluent and knowledgeable in interviews.

We propose a metric related to our contract earnings earned from any contract we acquire through this GCloud framework – 1% of our average annual recurrent revenue of £136,000 pa per contract. Our average staff cost on an hourly basis is £44, meaning that we would contribute 31 days per year, per contract.

Equal opportunity

Future Perfect (Healthcare) is an equal opportunities Company with a clearly defined policy that is Board-monitored.

In 2023, we entered an agreement with Coding Black Females CIC, a not-for-profit company that helps black women into software engineering jobs. We have already made one hire from Coding Black Females (UX/UI Designer). Winning new contracts under GCloud will require us to accelerate recruitment, with permanent as well as contract-temporary positions.

Working with Coding Black Females, we offer specialist training in the software skills required in the health sector, due to the sector-specific requirements of open standards and ethical AI applications development. We are already intending to recruit four staff to our Data Science and Clinical Modelling team, requiring skills ranging from Lo-Code Decision Support coders, through to advanced data scientists.

We have created a pipeline of potential recruits for Coding Black Females and we will offer them prior access. As a metric, we aim to recruit a third of our coder-level workforce via Coding Black Females, subject to required high quality of these potential recruits.

Wellbeing

The essence of our health and care services and products concern health and care, improvements of which are fundamental to wellbeing.

• Our mission is to save and improve people’s lives through better prediction, prevention, diagnosis and treatment of illness and disease.

• Our means of doing this are to integrate patient data across institutions to enable shared care (far faster and at far lower cost than hitherto), accelerate access to innovating digital health technologies (especially Genomics and AI), above all, by committing to open standards and vendor neutrality in all we do.

The difference we make is the democratising of healthcare, starting from democratising the data and information of healthcare, using technology to invite, welcome and utilise people's input to their own needs that gets factored into decisions made together with care professionals. Most IT systems bought until now have been highly proprietary, from which extracting people’s data is made difficult and extremely costly. Our own platform is open standards-based, into which we extract data, rendering it directly usable by (and on behalf of) people who are the subjects of that data.

As an additional contribution linking our added social value to our commercial propositions, we will offer assistance to all GCloud contract customers in their own change management programmes for implementing our services, helping them assure real benefit to people, for their respective local health and wellbeing priorities. We will make this offer without charge, to 100% of all GCloud customers with whom we will have agreed contracts of 3 years duration.
