The Labour Court

Transforming Case Management with Power Platform and Cloud Migration

The Labour Court Case Study

The Labour Court, Ireland's primary authority for resolving industrial relations disputes, embarked on a digital transformation journey to modernise legal case management processes and administrative infrastructure, with the aim of elevating operational excellence and enhancing citizen experiences. 

The previous case management landscape relied on Excel and a legacy case management solution that was reaching end-of-life. As a result case management relied heavily on manual, paper-based processes. Partnering with Storm Technology, the Labour Court leveraged the flexibility of Microsoft Power Platform to create a fully consolidated, cloud-based case management system tailored to its unique requirements. 

The new system has helped the Labour Court streamline operations with a single modern system for managing case scheduling, appeals and referrals, helping improve visibility and efficiency. Role-based access helps ensure proper governance and a new online portal for appeal or referral submissions has helped enhance citizen experiences. The Labour Court was also supported by Storm's specialists in preserving and migrating 25 years' worth of case data to the cloud. 

Business Benefits

Harnessing the capabilities of Microsoft Power Platform delivered several key benefits for the Labour Court.

Streamlined Operations

The case management system helps streamline several processes, such as the management and submissions of appeals, scheduling of hearings and tracking decisions with smart workflows - eliminating inefficiencies across the board.

Enhanced Governance

A reduction in paper-based processes and the introduction of role-based access and functionality have ensured the proper governance of information meaning employees have access to the information relevant to their role.

Cloud Migration

The Labour Court worked with Storm's specialists to preserve and migrate 25 years' worth of data to the cloud. In order for the data to migrated , there was a period of data cleaning and organisation that was essential.
