1. How will this affect PCO and Local Authority inspections?
Initially compliance inspections will be simplified as any licensing officer of inspector can be sat at a terminal which can easily display all the documents they are looking for without going to a single filing cabinet. In the near future it will be possible to allow Inspectors remote access to your database to carry out some or all of the checks without troubling you or your staff at your office. Yes, 95% of a licensing Officers job will be achievable remotely, without entering your office!

3.Will my records be secure?
Access to user data is strictly password controlled. Each company will set up its own users and control access levels and passwords. Each company’s data is discreet to that company and only accessible to their designated users or to the authorised authorities that you nominate. All data will be located on a secure fully maintained remote server where data is both mirrored and frequently backed without the user having to do anything.

4.How much will the system cost?
The system is charged on the basis of an initial set up charge followed by a monthly charge based on the number of drivers or escorts held for each company. This sliding scale makes it an attractive proposition for all companies large and small. The average monthly charge works out to less than 20pence per week per driver.

5.How do I find out more and get started?
The full system is due for launch following testing at the end of July. The website is now on line with system details and demonstrations. Immediate registration of interest is available and it is expected that customers can start uploading data in the first week in August. The LPHCA will be holding a series of seminars following the launch of the system throughout the autumn. As with the LPHCA Topographical Assessment software the system is undergoing vigorous beta testing with some members.
