this is the funniest exchange I have seen on bluesky. I was laughing out loud on a crowded commuter train, people gave me concerning looks. I'm still laughing now. No emojis do this justice. Brilliant and I miss some of those end of day calls we used to do.

Thanks David and that's very kind of you. All good and I hope you are well too. I really believe this work will happen eventually and reading @richardpope.org 's excellent #platformland only reinforces that.

Thanks David. Totally agree and I regret not writing up more, making the work public and recording/sharing things like the show and tells.

time, work in recovery mode and under far more scrutiny (panic and scared mode). I think it might be another prime example of a large programme consuming all of the opportunities for a number of years. What Ben is flagging is the end result of that. Sorry - longer than I had planned.

department to use all of the GDS platform services at the time. The new Basic service was quite an improvement and managed well with big spikes for covid volunteers. Needless to say getting that far was really difficult (legal. policy, IT, IT, IT and culture), we had to make up years of development

which is why these run into millions a year. That's the service I helped with, it passed service assessments as a few of us were able to convince the ceo at the time to break out of their very large (and some might say, failing) programme. We created an in-house team and DBS were the first

Tentatively admitting I helped set up a digital team for DBS in 2016 (gulp). There's so much background and context, and it was another factor that led me to ending my 23+ years as a CS.
On your question around checks, there's multiple levels of checks. The basic service focuses on convictions

GDX…(I think it’s all stopped now but might have that wrong). I must catch up with Darwin and hope he is good. I’m working on the electronic Referral Service at the NHS.
