Integrating Pentana Risk Inform module with the Council’s Corporate website

Pentana Risk was already in use at neighbouring Nottinghamshire County Council and its six district Councils to monitor and manage performance under the TotalNotts project. Therefore, the City Council’s performance team was already aware of the Pentana Risk solution and the wealth of modules available not just for KPI management but for a host of other functions which help organisations work towards achieving their corporate goals.

The project team concluded that having the Council’s performance data and citizen feedback consolidated in one system would be the ideal scenario, allowing the council to monitor its performance in line with how satisfied citizens were with the services provided to them. Pentana Risk was identified as being able to provide a unique combined solutions for both those areas.
