We've spent two years running TIFA Life, with 60+ young people across 30 properties in South Wales and over 150 supported since opening. We've been writing about supported accommodation the whole time, in commissioner reports, training materials, and internal memos. This is where we publish it.
Most providers run operational governance on instinct and Excel. That works at three properties. It breaks at fifteen. By thirty it is a daily fire-fight. The Process Library is what we built when we ran out of Excel.
The 2023 Supported Accommodation Regulations put 16-17 year-olds under Ofsted, not CQC. The software market has not caught up. Why supported accommodation needs its own category of platform.
Most supported accommodation providers spend three days a month writing commissioner reports. The data already exists in their operational systems. The report is a Word document assembled by hand. We built the alternative.
Care, Capacity, Compound, Cash. Four control gates we run TIFA Life through. Each one a Go/Slow/Stop signal owned by a specific role. When any one is Stop, the organisation halts on that axis until resolved. This is how we scale without losing safeguarding integrity.
Software built by software people for care providers serves software people's instincts. Software built by a provider, in a provider, used every day to run a provider, serves the provider's instincts. The difference shows up everywhere.
