ALISS technical update

• We’re reviewing all feedback from citizens, professionals,

academics and key stakeholders on our data structure and

the types of resources we should and could have.

• We have pushed live the “claim resource” feature and 5

resources claimed.

• We have pushed live a full version of our API product to

Wire (Renfrew HSCP – Well in Renfrewshire Community

Health and Wellbeing Partnership).

• We’re looking for support from front-end developers to

design and develop the look and feel of the website.

Data migration review

• From a total of 59,000 resources we removed all resources part of an integration.

• This left us with 25,000 resources. We removed: resources that didn’t have a full name, a

description and had multiple locations, no URLS and couldn’t be geocoded.

• This left us with 18,414 resources. We removed resources containing the words “costa”,

Starbucks”, resources not from Scotland, etc…

• This left us with 12,242 resources, we removed 1000’s of resources that were of a poor

quality and not relevant to our new approach.

• This left us with 8,500 resources (Phase 1). We obtained the support of 3 full time staff

working 5 days per week for 4 weeks to migrate the data. A total of 1,649 resources were

migrated. This work cost £9,800

• Using this approach it would cost a further £35,000 to migrate the remaining 6,851.

Situation

ALISS has 1200+ users with a log in.

A wide and diverse partnership portfolio

Our engagement with stakeholders tends to be intensive but relatively short (i.e. based defined projects)

We have a small core team

We host information about thousands of resources –this information needs to be coproduced and maintained

We want to be proactive and understand our stakeholders motivations and needs.

Developing learning material to support an new Accredited Associate programme (tailored to specific professional / educational development frameworks)

Developing new digital communication channels

Developing our analytics and tracking protocols and processes.

What we are doing
