LearnPro selected for OneRisk platform
London Fire Brigade (LFB) has selected Prevent + Protect from LearnPro Group, working with Softcat, for its OneRisk project to modernise and integrate building-related fire risk information.
LearnPro announced that the platform was chosen through LFB’s competitive OneRisk procurement process after a tender for a commercial off the shelf platform to replace multiple legacy systems.
LFB identified Prevent + Protect as its preferred system for prevention, protection, operational risk and hydrant management.
The project is intended to consolidate risk information systems and bring risk data into a single cloud hosted platform.
According to LearnPro, the system is designed to remove data silos, improve mobile capability and give teams across departments access to shared risk information.
What the platform will replace
The source material states that LFB sought a sector-ready platform to replace multiple legacy systems and support work across Prevention, Protection and Hydrant Management teams.
Prevent + Protect is described as a mobile-first system with specialist CRM functionality that keeps touchpoint and job history records where individuals move location or are linked to more than one premises or business.
It also supports the management of parent and child premises structures.
LearnPro said the platform includes workflow automation and Microsoft integration, including support for artificial intelligence capabilities.
Comments on the contract award
Pamela Oparaocha, London Fire Brigade Assistant Commissioner for Prevention and Protection, said: “We are committed to strengthening how we manage, share and use risk information across our organisation.
“We have a unified and accurate picture of risk is essential for the way we plan our work, engage with communities and support our firefighters on the ground.
“This new platform will replace several legacy systems and give our teams a more consistent and accessible view of the information they need.
“This is a long term investment in innovation, digital capability and improved service delivery for London, and an important part of our ambition to build a more modern, data enabled fire and rescue service.”
Costi Karayannis, Chief Executive Officer of LearnPro Group, said: “We are incredibly proud that Prevent + Protect has been selected by London Fire Brigade to deliver its OneRisk vision.
“We look forward to partnering closely with LFB as part of their continuous effort to reduce risk and optimise the critical services they provide to the public across our capital city.”
Russell Wood, UK Market Lead at LearnPro Group, added: “This award reaffirms Prevent + Protect as the leading modern Prevention and Protection platform for Fire and Rescue Services and follows several additional new FRS contracts secured in recent months.
“We are excited to support London Fire Brigade on its transformative OneRisk journey.”
