GMCA IT Discovery Piece - Troubled familes Datat set & Manchester Digital Platform

Tender description

Why the Work is Being Done To better understand interventions delivered via Troubled Families across Greater Manchester, the impact on demand and the outcomes for our families. To link data on individuals and families and then provide analysis on the full cohort, with the ability to filter. To test hypothesis / theories on the cohort such as patterns that could lend themselves to predictive analysis. To evidence the value of data for the cohort, as a way of testing if this can be scaled up to other types of interventions. Problem to Be Solved The data comes in different formats from different systems and quickly becomes too large for current analysis tool to calculate the required formula. This limits our ability to evidence our impact but also the potential of data to offer more than evaluations. We believe with the right data and right tools, we can provide regression analysis that will help us move to a preventative offer compared to a reactive approach. This will link in with the GM Digital Platform and tools available We would like to understand how the GMDP components could provide a solution to the troubled families problem.
