Following a competitive tendering process, Pulsion Technology has been awarded the contract to provide a pilot Joint Client Database solution to the UK’s three national Refugee Councils, operating in England, Scotland and Wales. The introduction of the solution, which will be underpinned by Pulsion’s Caman Case Management system, comes at a time when the Government is facing increasing pressures to reduce backlogs of legacy asylum cases and to speed up asylum processing. Although IT systems had been in place for a number of years, they weren’t flexible enough to meet growing demands, targets and increased reporting requirements. Caman is modular, highly flexible with strong reporting capabilities and will be key to the programme of planned improvements.
