Cloud MIS Solutions in Wales

I read with interest this article only just released where BromCom won a second Local Authority contract in Wales.I was wondering if anyone has seen any cloud MIS that meets Welsh statutory requirements other than BromCom

It's good progress. The problem with MIS in Wales is that due to Welsh Gov rules and regs we need the MIS to have actual physical changes with some bits and bobs specifically for Wales put in.

 

We've been stuck in a chicken and egg situation for years as for example Bromcom wouldnt make the "Wales changes" until they had some Welsh schools coming on board, which isn't gonna happen, untill after the changes have been made.

 

I had this conversation with Bromcom at Bett a few years ago. They said we can't spend the time and money to make the changes when we have no welsh customers. Do you want to be our first Welsh customer? I told them sadly, not yet, and that they would continue to get absoloutly 0 welsh schools on board if they didnt make the changes to the MIS first.

 

Looks like that has been solved now and I assume the changes made. The floodgates might open in the rest of Wales.
