Kirklees Children’s Services have been using Liquidlogic as their recording system since procurement in 2016. Since implementation in 2018, the system has been further developed continuously and further modules have been purchased which bring added benefits to the service. Awarding the contract to Liquidlogic again would be the best and most cost-effective way of ensuring we have a fit for purpose recording system that is already embedded and used by all practitioners within Children’s Services.
Going down the procurement route to procure a completely new recording system was rejected.
