Key benefits

Timely, modern data analytics combined with supportive learning communities.

1. Advanced predictive analytics and risk adjustment

Evolve’s data platform leverages advanced AI/ machine learning and risk-adjusted modelling to forecast future trends for an individual trust on key metrics including high-impact adverse events while also providing retrospective data for performance assessment.
A data pipeline that operates on HES, ECDS, SHMI and CDS data to provide benchmarking across the sector and the flexibility to leverage improvements in the individual trust datasets.
Opportunities to provide input and direction for continuous improvement and additional datasets.

Most importantly, Evolve empowers teams to make proactive, data-driven decisions that enhance patient care and operational efficiency.

2. Customisable, role-specific reporting

The platform generates interactive, tailored reports for different levels, including board directors, executive teams and clinical leads to ensure that those who need it have full visibility of data to drive continuous improvement.

3. Dynamic benchmarking

Evolve enables trusts to set up interchangeable peer groups to benchmark performance and gain deeper insights at various levels:
- Trust-wide (site-to-site) comparisons
- Regional benchmarking
- National benchmarking (all England)
Future functionality will support international benchmarking, further expanding learning opportunities.

4. Designed by NHS leaders, for NHS leaders

Co-designed with its members, the Evolve platform is tailored to the needs of NHS teams, with a holistic suite of comparative benchmarking metrics and predictive analytics to support quality surveillance, financial efficiency and health outcomes structured across five domains:
- Safety: safe care is delivered across all settings
- Timeliness and accessibility: people receive timely and equitable access to care
- Financial and operational sustainability: the health system is operated sustainably
- People and culture: addresses workforce engagement, organisational culture, and the alignment of staff with the institution’s mission and goals
- Effectiveness and population health: people receive timely and equitable access to care.
Further analytics developed responsively and quickly according to the priorities of members.
Opportunity to develop data improvement activities and leverage additional existing Beamtree forecast metrics on adverse events / complications by working with trusts to improve their datasets and resultant CDS submissions (coding improvements on present on admission flag).

5. Peer-to-peer learning communities

Sharing best practices and turning insights into plans of action, Evolve convenes peer-to-peer learning communities to understand and discuss pressing topics and where variation exists in the data.

Learning communities will offer a dynamic and collaborative environment by leveraging the collective expertise and experiences of community members.

The learning communities aim to understand the ‘why,’ share best practices and turn insights into action. As a result, teams can enact clear, data-driven plans that:
