Single users can retain their login to the system or request L2P for any downloads required.
On an institution-wide basis (at the end of the contract), L2P will off-board your data in a format that can be used in another system, e.g. PDF, or flat file - End-of-contract process
-
Client organisations download any data required should they remove a user from their system.
If an organisation is decommissioning L2P they can either download all the data as zip files, or request L2P to do so for a charge.

There are more than 200 configuration settings in L2P across all of our modules.
If you have a specific requirement that is not already available, then L2P will programme this requirement into the system for you.
Clients can choose from multiple different modules. Available modules are:
- Appraisal and Revalidation,
- Multi-Source Feedback,
- Job Planning,
- Medical Educators,
- Healthcare Leadership Module (2 different formats),
- Post Appraisal Questionnaires (including bespoke questionnaires),
- Quality Assurance,
- Disclosure and Barring Service check module (automated checking and reminders),
- ICO module (automated checking and reminders),
- Resources modules,
- Bespoke Checklists,
- Mandatory training module,
- Fees Payment Module.
- Full notes module as standard.
In the configuration of the system for the client, there are also multiple different settings that can be applied - e.g. different emails and different timings of emails, and different configurations of the dashboards.
As the software has evolved over 10 years, based on client feedback, the vast majority of specification change requests have been applied universally to the system. However, clients are offered the opportunity to tailor the system specifically for their organisation.
Scaling
- Independence of resources
-
L2P is deployed in a highly secure cloud environment. Capacity planning is undertaken regularly and we monitor server usage - both front end web servers and database/file servers- continuously. We deploy a very generous margin of extra capacity to ensure that computing resource is never over-utilised, even by spikes in demand. We deploy load-balancers to ensure that demand is distributed evenly between resources. We have complete insight into the demands created by each new customer implementation and new servers can be provisioned within 24 hours.
We regularly increase the number of support staff to cope with the increased demand.

Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
-
We will ensure >99.9% average monthly application uptime. Should an application fall below the 99.9% uptime, L2P will work with the Customer and use all commercially reasonable endeavours to ensure it meets this guarantee. We will refund 10% of the monthly fee for every 0.1% it falls below the guarantee level. We have never had cause to invoke this clause.
In reality, our service uptime over the last 12 months has been >99.999% - Approach to resilience
- Regular testing and maintenance of infrastructure and the N+1 policy applied to data centres provides the basis of continuity controls. This is enhanced by the provision of multiple communication routes and the replication of our data centre network infrastructure across our provider's sites. Our providers' data centres are also located outside flight paths, flood plains, have no seismic threat, and are a minimum of 3km outside sites who could pose a potential accident or hazardous threat (as governed by HSE). Therefore, in the event of any given location being lost, the primary impact to our provider would be on office facilities, but with 6 UK Offices and 10 UK Data Centres providing hosting services and support, this impact is limited and mitigated with standing arrangements to relocate staff to the nearest alternative site.
- Outage reporting
