Through its strategic business unit HFX, the ADVT Group supports a number of Prisons and MOJ executive bodies across the UK with trusted workforce management solutions.
Workforce Management Specialism for Prisons
Via HFX – ADVT’s Workforce Management delivers a trusted, cloud-based platform delivering employee self-serve, flexitime management, rostering, time and attendance, and budgeting and forecasting for prison teams. It is purpose-built for the demanding operational realities of the UK & Ireland prison services.
Manual paper-based processes are replaced with secure digital tools that provide accurate, audit-ready workforce records and real-time visibility for prison human capital managers. By automating flexitime tracking, absence management, and payroll preparation, it reduces administrative overhead, improves compliance with working time rules, and gives operational leaders the workforce clarity they need to maintain front-line effectiveness.
Incorporating HMPPS policies, the ADVT tech stack gives the senior leadership team and operational managers accurate, real-time visibility of staffing levels and deployment across wings, functions, and sites at all times.
Integrated access control is of course crucial for prisons and the HFX platform supports RFID, biometric recognition, and a wide range of hardware. It manages and records the movement of staff throughout the estate, providing complete, audit-ready records of all site activity. Fire roll call and visitor and contractor management capabilities extend this to everyone on site, supporting both daily safety obligations and emergency response.
Automated payroll preparation reduces administrative overhead significantly, with customers reporting typical returns on investment within nine months. All data is hosted securely within the UK, with no requirement for on-site servers or capital infrastructure investment.
ADVT Workforce Management is a trusted, long-term partner to prisons.
