Solution

Capita’s AI transformation here is an internally adopted operating model rather than a single packaged application. The company uses Multiverse as the external enablement platform to train employees at scale, then turns that training into applied AI projects inside day-to-day operations. Learners on the AI for Business Value, Level 4 programme identify manual bottlenecks, build targeted AI automations, and embed them in business workflows. In the example cited, Training Operations Manager Dave Collingwood created an AI-enabled booking workflow that takes inputs from the training team’s booking process and writes them into a more auditable, data-rich system, sharply reducing cycle time. Capita is extending the same pattern in Capita Fire and Rescue, where an internal AI agent reviews completed fire risk assessments to provide assurance at scale and reduce inconsistency in a safety-critical process.

Data flow

Workflow data from teams such as training operations enters AI-enabled automations built by Capita employees after Multiverse-led training. The automation processes booking inputs and writes outputs into a more auditable, data-rich system used by the team. In Capita Fire and Rescue, completed fire risk assessments are fed to an internal AI agent, which returns assurance results for operational users reviewing the 6,000 assessments completed each year.

    • Multiverse Provided the upskilling platform and programmes Capita used to train employees and scale applied AI projects across the business.
    • AI for Business Value, Level 4 Taught Capita staff to identify and execute high-impact AI use cases tied to operational problems.
    • AI agent An internally developed agent for Capita Fire and Rescue that is being built to provide assurance on completed fire risk assessments.

Architecture clues

  • A safety-related assurance use case targets 6,000 fire risk assessments completed annually.
  • Capita scaled AI upskilling from more than 500 employees to a further 250 staff members.
  • One internal use case created a more auditable, data-rich booking system.
  • The initial cohort delivered over 400 applied AI projects and identified 40 unique AI use cases.

Evidence from the source

"Dave is now applying these skills to Capita Fire and Rescue, where he is developing an AI agent to provide 100% assurance on the 6,000 fire risk assessments completed annually, eliminating potential inconsistencies and enhancing public safety."
"He identified a major bottleneck in the training team’s booking process and built a solution that reduced the time required for a single booking from eight minutes to just 30 seconds."
"These efficiency gains represent a significant shift toward a data and AI-augmented workforce, where technical skills are used to remove manual administrative burdens and accelerate decision making."
"This single project saved 30 business days of manual work each year and created a more auditable, data-rich system."
"To date, Capita’s initial cohort has saved an average of 10 hours per week per learner, delivering over 400 applied AI projects and identifying 40 unique AI use cases."
