i-Progress v3.0

What does i-Progress, the client management, monitoring and evaluation system for Healthy Living Initiatives offer?

Healthy Living Service Management

i-Progress provides all the benefits of recording and maintaining accurate information on:

• Clients & service users
• Services, tasks and events
• Volunteers
• Suppliers
• Staff and board members
• Agencies
• Venues

Monitor Progress

i-Progress also provides a system for the management team to:

• Review all activity with standard reports
• Monitor client progress
• Manage all activity with auditable records
• Demonstrate good governance of funds used to stakeholders

Evaluate Success

i-Progress allows their board and management to evaluate the success of various activities over time and potentially compare the results with other Healthy Living Initiatives. Special reports can be designed to suit specific requirements.

Can We Use It?

i-Progress is a complete suite of software based on Microsoft technology and can be run on:

• One single computer
• An internal network of computes within a Healthy Living Initiative
• Any computer with Internet access (version 3.0 and above)

How Safe is Information Stored in i-Progress?

The system uses a structure of secure access for the main administrator, with degrees of access for all other staff. Limited access can be provided to board members and others as required. For systems, where your organisation permits access through the internet, the security is at the highest level and managed by the administrator.

Can i-Progress Be Adapted for Our Special Requirements?

Yes. i-Progress has been developed as a set of modules which can be customised. We recognise that not all Healthy Living Initiatives offer the same services, are the same size or operate the same way, so we have designed the system to be tailored to your needs. For example, terminology varies from initiative to initiative. Some programmes refer to clients, some to service users. Reporting requirements are seldom identical and so we configure the system for each user at installation.

What proof is there that is works?

The first user of i-Progress was the Healthy Valleys Initiative in South Lanarkshire. They have been using the system for over 2 years and have found the system invaluable to their operation with their ability not just to keep accurate records, but to monitor the progress of individuals and groups of clients. They have also used the system to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of various programmes.

The manager of Healthy Valleys, Lesley McCranor states:
"The i-Progress system has been invaluable to us and all our staff and our board rely on this system to make the best use of our resources"

How Quickly Can i-Progress Be Installed?

This depends to a great extent on the size and scope of activity run by a Healthy Living Initiative. A basic system can probably be installed with staff training in a matter of days. If current data exists on spreadsheets or in other databases, this data can usually be imported quite swiftly. If the data needs to be rekeyed then this can be one over time.
