Prolific and other Priority Offenders (PPO)

Bluestar has just released our Corvus based PPO application that enables organisations to effectively manage resources in line with the Home Office PPO strategy. This focuses on the relatively small number of people who cause a disproportionate amount of crime and disorder in our communities.

The Bluestar PPO application combines a wealth of stand-alone features with optional integration to our main product range for extended functionality. It caters for the complete case 'lifecycle' from identification and nomination (using customer specific scoring strategies), initial evaluation (including the production of standard documentation for partner agencies) and subsequent management using structured tasking and closure.

Corvus Analyser

One of Bluestar's additional services is our capabilities in the area of data auditing, quality and analysis. A number of in-house tools assist us in delivering an exceptional service within short timescales. Many of the utilities themselves have arisen from the Corvus configuration tools that are used to define customer specific applications.

The Corvus Analyser tool allows Bluestar consultants to perform a range of analysis and auditing actions against any type of data, allowing the full spectrum of data profiling to be applied. This includes identifying maximum and minimum values, relationship mapping, exception reporting and qualitative analysis. The Corvus Analyser can identify whether the data is 'fit for purpose' (often when the current use is not that originally intended) and, as appropriate, help to deliver a strategy for data inclusion and quality improvement.
