The challenge

The estates and facilities team at Somerset NHS Foundation Trust rely on a large body of national regulations and internal policies to run safe and compliant services. Finding the right information quickly was difficult. Staff often had to review multiple systems and documents, leading to delays and uncertainty when responding to queries.​

The team also needed confidence that they were using the most up-to-date guidance. With thousands of documents changing frequently, validating accuracy was time consuming. Staff required clearer explanations and faster access to precise requirements.​

  • Information spread across multiple unconnected repositories

  • Long periods spent checking for the most current guidance

  • Complex documents that were difficult to interpret quickly

The solution

CompliMind gives EFM staff instant, accurate answers supported by cited references. This is powered by the Regulatory Wiki, which updates more than 2,500 documents daily to maintain accuracy.

Staff can query specific documents, locate requirements and cross-check with local policies without having to navigate lengthy guidance themselves. Quick, clear, credible.

The result

The Trust gained faster and more reliable access to national guidance and internal policies. Staff received answers immediately, supported by clear citations. Decision making became more consistent as teams worked from a single source of truth.

  • Faster access to accurate and up-to-date regulatory guidance

  • Clear referenced answers that improved confidence across teams

  • More consistent decision making supported by centralised information

“CompliMind is like having a compliance colleague with encyclopaedic memory, drawing together regulations that normally sit in isolation and presenting them in a way that’s directly usable in our day-to-day documents.”
