What we provide:
• Comprehensive service documentation covering setup, data transfer protocols, and operational guidance
• Interactive workshops to familiarise users with the service functionality and best practices
• Training options:
•On-site training for hands-on support
•Online sessions for remote accessibility and flexibility
Our onboarding process includes a detailed walkthrough of data preparation, secure transfer methods, and output interpretation.

We also provide ongoing support during the initial implementation phase to ensure confidence and efficiency.

By combining clear documentation with practical training, we enable users to start using the service quickly and effectively, reducing time to value and ensuring compliance with security standards.

End-of-contract data extraction
At the conclusion of the contract, users will receive a comprehensive results extract delivered securely via SFTP. This extract will include:
• Complete output data from all processed batches.
• A detailed Management Information (MI) report providing:
• A full breakdown of results.
• Key performance metrics.
• Confidence grading summaries.
• Any future treatment recommendations to support ongoing data management.

This approach ensures that clients retain full ownership of their data and have actionable insights for future use. All files are provided in an agreed format to enable easy integration with internal systems. No additional software or tools are required for extraction, and the process complies with security and regulatory standards.

Our goal is to make data retrieval simple, secure, and transparent, giving clients confidence that their information is complete and ready for next steps.
End-of-contract process
At the end of a contract, we follow a standard process for the return and deletion of client data. We retain current and historic data for seven years from the exit point of the contractual relationship with the client, unless otherwise agreed in writing on a client-by-client basis, and always subject to compliance with minimum legal requirements for data retention. After this period, the data is securely destroyed. Data includes paper records and information/records on computer systems (including encrypted backups and web hosting). Exceptions to this retention period are call recordings (seven years standard) and emails (three years standard; 15 years for Risk & Compliance and Audit classified staff).

Additional costs only apply where expressly agreed in the contract.

Customisation available

Description of customisation
We will work with our end customers to design a bespoke treatment strategy for their data, allowing customised processes which can work alongside other data services. Our customisation also includes bespoke file outputs to meet the clients operational needs

We collaborate closely with clients during onboarding and throughout the engagement to define their unique requirements. This includes agreeing on data processing rules, output formats, and integration points. Customisation is achieved through configuration rather than additional software, ensuring efficiency and compliance.

Customisation is managed by our Client Relationship Team in partnership with your designated stakeholders. Technical adjustments are implemented by our data specialists, ensuring accuracy and security while maintaining full alignment with your operational needs.

Scaling

Independence of resources
Capita manages service performance through a structured approach to capacity planning and pipeline management. We regularly review resource allocation and monitor workloads to maintain efficiency across all projects. This process includes forecasting demand trends, identifying potential peak periods, and planning for fluctuations in activity.
Our operational model uses workload balancing and prioritisation techniques to optimise throughput and minimise delays. Where demand increases, we assess available capacity and adjust scheduling to maintain service continuity. These measures are designed to reduce the likelihood of performance issues and support consistent delivery under varying conditions, without compromising security or data integrity.

Analytics

Metrics types
After each project, we provide a comprehensive results pack detailing key performance metrics and outcomes. This includes:

⦁ Volume of records processed.

Data importing and exporting

Data export approach
Capita provides users with a complete extract of their processed data at the end of each project. The data is delivered in CSV format and uploaded to a secure transport site using approved protocols such as SFTP. This ensures compliance with security standards and guarantees safe transfer of sensitive information. The file format is agreed during onboarding to enable seamless integration with client systems. No additional software is required, and confirmation of successful delivery is provided.

Availability and resilience

Guaranteed availability
Service availability is managed through robust operational processes and proactive capacity planning. Availability Service Level Agreements (SLAs) are defined on a case-by-case basis, tailored to the specific requirements of each engagement. This approach ensures alignment with client expectations and the complexity of the service being delivered.

Where an SLA is agreed, it will specify the target availability level, monitoring approach, and reporting frequency.

Capita does not apply a one-size-fits-all SLA model; instead, we work collaboratively with clients to establish realistic and achievable availability targets that support operational continuity. This flexibility allows us to accommodate varying workloads, peak demand periods, and bespoke service configurations.
Approach to resilience
This information is available on request.
Outage reporting
In the event of a service outage, Capita will notify affected users promptly via email or telephone within 24 hours of the outage being identified. This communication will include details of the issue, the impact on service, and any steps being taken to resolve it.

Currently, we do not provide a public dashboard or API for outage reporting. However, our Client Relationship Team ensures direct and transparent communication with designated contacts to minimise disruption and keep stakeholders informed.

For critical incidents, escalation procedures are in place to prioritise resolution and provide regular updates until service is restored. Post-resolution, a summary report outlining the cause, corrective actions, and any preventative measures will be shared with the client.

This approach ensures timely, clear, and accountable communication during service interruptions.

Identity and authentication

User authentication needed
Yes
User authentication
  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
  • Username or password
Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels
Access to management interfaces and support channels is restricted through a combination of user roles and security groups. Each user is assigned a role that defines their permissions, ensuring they only access functions relevant to their responsibilities. Security groups provide an additional layer by segmenting users based on organisational requirements, preventing unauthorised access to sensitive areas. Role-based access control (RBAC) and group policies are enforced consistently, and changes are logged for audit purposes. This approach minimises risk, maintains compliance, and ensures that only authorised personnel can perform administrative tasks or access privileged support channels.
