New Sentinel & SkillsID Section number to go here Richard Elliott Network Rail Programme Manager 7th March 2013
1999: The Sentinel card is introduced for Railtrack, covering its own workforce and the supply chain. Used for ‘on or near the track’ ID & Competence Checks. Information held centrally on the NCCA database, run by Capita. 2000 – 2010: Various improvements made (e.g. website portal). 2011: The Sentinel Enhancement Programme formed to look at taking Sentinel to the next level. Making it smarter, simpler, more cost effective and leading to safer working practices. 2012: The Sentinel Enhancement Programme obtains approval for funding to introduce the new enhanced Sentinel card for the rail industry. Full market tender exercise undertaken. Mitie is selected to run new Sentinel. 2013: The ‘rules’ for Sentinel are rewritten in consultation with industry to make them fairer, more transparent and clarify accountability. 2013: The new Sentinel service will be introduced from June.The first phase of rollout will be at three NR sites – Saltley, Perth and Carlisle. Followed by full NR rollout, followed by Supply Chain. 2013: Sentinel and SkillsID will be integrated to establish a single point of entry for railway skills data for use by training organisations and sponsors. The Sentinel journey About Sentinel
New Sentinel Our Purpose Our Mission Our Vision Fully engage with suppliers, stakeholders and end-users so they accept new Sentinel as safer, smarter simpler That Sentinel is recognised globally as the model for safe working access across industry Deliver an improved Sentinel service that underpins the industry safety strategy New Sentinel Sentinel:Safer, Smarter, Simpler New Sentinel is an enhancement of the existing service providing new capabilities and opportunities to further improve site safety, increase efficiencies and reduce industry costs.
Sentinel: The Aims • Sentinel will become: • Safer - “no-one undertakes an activity unless they have been trained and assessed as competent” • Smarter – using the latest ‘smart’ technology to deliver and exploit information where it’s needed at all times • Simpler – one card solution, easy to verify, single source of ‘truth’ Sentinel aims
What’s in it for you? Cost: Fairer and more transparent cost to the industry Efficiency: Reduction in administrative burdens on your COSS and Site Managers by replacing manual paper based COSS forms with an electronic approach using smart phone applications. Security and transparency: Tightening the control of access to our sites (without reducing productivity) to levels that are common practise in other sectors and other parts of the construction industry. Safety: Supporting Network Rail’s Life Saving Rules will further keep the industry as safe as possible – getting everyone home safe, every day We will challenge, review and eliminate or simplify existing processes, procedures and administration which no longer add value but do increase costs (time and money). We will explore new and expand existing services and capabilities that will derive real cost, efficiency and safety value to you from the information that Sentinel can access.
Data integrity • One of the big challenges of new Sentinel is to ensure that we have ‘one version’ of the truth. Successive upgrades have been built upon legacy platforms – leading to data inaccuracies. • All data must be as accurate and up-to-date as possible. • Data Cleansing as part of migration from old Sentinel to current Sentinel (Sponsors) • The data migration from NCCA to new Sentinel will be in 2 tranches due to the 3 month first stage roll-out. • We are also designing a direct link between SkillsID and Sentinel so that skills data can be added once and collated across the entire industry. How it works
The objective… To provide a simple, single point of entry for all supply chain skills through SkillsID. • Network Rail actively supports SkillsID. • Sentinel will provide the passport for working on and around our infrastructure safely. • SkillsID will provide the whole industry with vital information to meet the challenges of the future. • Used together they will deliver huge and ongoing benefit to the industry. 9
