Cambridgeshire County Council

We're very careful with personal data and the BlackBerry solution kept the data safely behind our corporate firewall even when being accessed by users in the field. – Alan Shields, ICT Development Manager, Cambridgeshire County Council

Business Challenge

  • Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC) is the lead for Project Nomad—a local e-government national project dedicated to mobile working and piloting mobile technology solutions that can help local authorities improve services to its citizens
  • In the past, ambulances would take the affected party to Accident & Emergency (A&E) as a precaution because they didn’t have access to information about the individual

Solution

  • Provide the ambulance crews with browser-based mobile access to SWIFT, their social care system, using BlackBerry® smartphones

Results

  • Alternative solution to unnecessary trips to A&E
  • Cost-effective data access as CCC no longer has to rewrite product code, purchase additional user licenses for its back-office system or install any remote client software
  • BlackBerry solution met CCC strict security and data protection requirements
