Matrix Security Watchdog has given us real-time visibility and the confidence to manage risk proactively, rather than constantly reacting to last-minute issues. Screening may not be the most glamorous part of workforce planning, but it’s one of the most critical. It’s the foundation for trust, safety and performance and it underpins the quality we strive for in every project.
Of the many platforms we use at Mencap, Matrix Security Watchdog’s is the simplest to use. The portal allows us to build custom reports with options that can be downloaded as spreadsheets. These show all applicants, the stages they’re at, and how long they’ve been in that stage – it’s really great. It’s also easy to break down data by region and manage the process with our counter signatories. The whole user experience is excellent.
