In 2017, NHS Scotland implemented Jobtrain ATS, an Applicant Tracking System, under a national contract with Jobtrain Solutions. The programme delivered a single, centralized Jobtrain ATS instance to support recruitment operations across NHS Scotland's health boards and regional sites.
Jobtrain ATS was configured with core Applicant Tracking System capabilities including job posting and vacancy management, candidate lifecycle and application workflow orchestration, screening and shortlisting tools, and compliance and reporting functions aligned to public sector recruitment controls. Configuration work emphasized standardized vacancy templates, role based access controls, and candidate communication workflows to support hiring managers and HR users.
Operational coverage extended to HR departments and recruitment teams across NHS Scotland, providing a consistent application intake and candidate management framework for multiple boards. The deployment established centralized vacancy authoring and candidate tracking to harmonize recruitment processes across the national estate.
Governance put centralized policy controls and administrator roles into place within Jobtrain ATS, with configuration governance to enforce consistent processes and audit trails. The implementation was executed under contract with Jobtrain Solutions and prioritized system configuration and staged user adoption across the organization.

In 2017, NHS Scotland began a trial deployment of KenSci Clinical Analytics through an open innovation competition to develop risk prediction for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The implementation focused on emergency care management for COPD within NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde, using an anonymized dataset covering approximately 2.1 million patients and capturing A&E admissions over a four year window to validate clinical predictive models.
The KenSci Clinical Analytics deployment implemented ML driven risk prediction models and a physician decision support solution, delivering COPD specific risk scores, detection and prediction of clinical deterioration including acute exacerbations, and estimations of admission patterns and length of stay. Model training and scoring pipelines were paired with visualization layers and clinician-facing reports, reflecting typical capabilities of ML and Data Science Platforms in healthcare risk stratification and operational forecasting.
Architecturally the risk prediction platform was built on Microsoft Azure with reporting surfaced through Power BI, ingesting anonymized records provided under a data processing agreement with the NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde Safe Haven. Trustmarque partnered with KenSci to construct the platform, and the project used SBRI funding and a phased evaluation approach to test technical feasibility against the Glasgow patient cohort.
Governance and rollout were structured around the SBRI competition phases, with phase 1 demonstrating feasibility and phase 2 designated for prototype development and evaluation, and NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde acting as the lead test bed for potential extension to other clinical areas. The project was explicitly aimed at enabling clinicians to prioritize high risk patients, support earlier treatment and disposition decisions, and inform hospital resource planning while maintaining clinical safety and data processing controls.
