Modules of our family information services solution
Family Information Service Management (FISO)
A range of online modules, including a web portal for Providers of Early Education, Child Care and Family Services.
This software has been developed and refined over 10 years to provide you with a powerful suite of products to support this essential service.
Page Manager
Helps you to manage and customise your online Family Information Service directory (FISO Public Enquiry) quickly and efficiently.
You can update and amend your own public enquiry web pages without your corporate web team having to make changes, which often leads to delays in new information going live.
You can concentrate on content without having to worry about conforming to web policies.
Provider Portal
Allows those in Early Education Settings access a secure web site and submit details of their termly estimates (*where applicable) and actual headcounts directly.
This can save you countless hours of manual entry and ensure the highest possible quality of data from our data checking and approval mechanisms.
Online Directory Enquiry
Gives you access to vital data, including contact details and information on registrations, inspections, and affiliations.
The data spans across service providers, staff, contacts, and general enquiries.
Categorisation by type, method, source, or requirement improves efficiencies by giving access to the right information at the right time.
