This year marked the successful completion of the VACIS Modernisation Project, a major digital uplift that involved:
- Replacement of ageing operational laptops with over 5,000 modern, lightweight iPads, setting the foundation for faster and more reliable access to digital tools in the field.
- Significant redesign of the VACIS platform 鈥� the core application used by paramedics on their new iPads to complete and submit their patient care records.
The VACIS redesign included a new interface specifically for iPad use, providing a cleaner, faster and more user-friendly experience, and was shaped by our paramedics during extensive in-field testing prior to the roll-out.
As a result of this deep involvement by our operational crews, the rollout model was adjusted to better support the distribution of iPads across the state, ensuring smoother deployment and improved user experience.
Key statistics
57,840 gigabytes of iPad data uploaded since roll-out
Over 5,000 iPads delivered across 83 branches
Deployment of 26 smart lockers 鈥� for safe storage of devices and management of repair/replacement
