TurnPoint Development Roadmap Announcement

All Posts
Published 24 May 2024
TurnPoint was founded in 2015 with the goal of helping aged and disability care providers to reduce administrative “busy work” which so often gets in the way of delivering great client outcomes.

Over the past nine years we have supported 400+ aged and disability care providers to coordinate over 27,000+ care workers in their efforts to deliver care to 130,000+ care recipients.

We are proud of what we have achieved and the fact that TurnPoint has helped our provider partners to coordinate and deliver care in a high-quality and compliant manner. In our time, we have also supported many of our provider partners to navigate Quality Reviews with the Aged Care Quality And Safety Commission and compliance audits with the NDIS Quality and Safeguards Commission.

However, as the care industry evolves TurnPoint must also continue to evolve.

Today, we are announcing TurnPoint will be undergoing a major upgrade of the TurnPoint platform
This upgrade will touch every part of the TurnPoint system, with the ultimate goal of updating how the system operates and bringing some much-needed improvements and functionality to the entire system, whilst remaining one of the most stable platforms on the market.

We understand this announcement may result in some questions from our provider partners, and we have taken time to address key questions below.

What does this upgrade look like? 

TurnPoint will be approaching this work in a systematic way, working through the platform feature by feature. We will upgrade core components and at the same time update and improve features within the platform. The system will meet all compliance obligations under aged and disability programs, and we are confident the system will reduce internal labour time and help to eliminate ‘busy work’.

Do we need to wait till the end of the project to experience the upgrades?

TurnPoint will be releasing upgrades periodically throughout the project meaning you won’t have to wait until the project is finished to experience upgrades.

Feature releases will only be approved after rigorous testing, ensuring minimal impact to your business.

Are user interface/visuals included in this project?

The user interface (UI)/visuals will receive a slight refresh with the project. A comprehensive review of the UI will be undertaken at the completion of this current project. Details will follow in the future, however, you should not anticipate substantive visual changes to the platform in the short-term.

What do I need to do to prepare for these upgrades?

Absolutely nothing! TurnPoint has been hard at work over the past 6 months preparing our approach to ensure minimal disruption for our existing provider partners. Our approach ensures no retraining is required and updated modules will come online seamlessly. As always, our Customer Success Team will be available to assist with any of your questions or concerns. We will communicate with you as features are released, and provide further documentation at that time.
Will there be any system outages whilst the upgrade takes place?

Our chosen approach means there will be no requirement for planned system outages.

What if I want to get involved in the planning?

Our success to date is based on placing the customer at the centre of everything that we do. This process will be no different. You can get involved in this process in the following three ways:

1. Review our digital roadmap – We have built a digital roadmap that outlines our approach and provides an overview of the features we will be reviewing. This roadmap is completely interactive. If you have an idea for a system improvement, simply head to the roadmap at any time and write directly to us. Whilst we can’t guarantee every suggestion will be actioned, having your feedback and ideas helps to ensure  we are on the right path.

2. Attend a Provider Partner Showcase – Over the next twelve months TurnPoint will be hosting provider partner showcases throughout Australia. These showcases will provide us with the opportunity to share the work we have undertaken, and solicit further feedback. More information regarding these showcases will be shared with our provider partners at a later date.

3. Become Beta Testing Partner – We will be calling on a select group of providers to test features as we begin to release them. Due to the nature of Beta Testing it won’t be possible for us to work with all providers. We will be releasing an expression of interest in the coming weeks.

We are excited to be able to finally share this news with all of our provider partners!

To answer any other questions that you might have, we will be hosting a live Q&A on Friday 14 June at 12pm. In attendance will be our CEO, COO, General Manager and Lead Developer for this project.
