Make Time Count Announces International Partnership with AdventFS

U.K. based Make Time Count Today (MTCT), a SaaS provider developing digital solutions used by criminal justice agencies to support vulnerable individuals using a multi agency collaboration solution, announced that a reseller agreement has been signed with U.S. based AdventFS (Advent). “We’ve always felt our behaviour-changing programming could be utilized in the UK and elsewhere,” said Josh Hartlage, President of Advent. “Advent eLearning’s content and intervention management platform combined with Make Time Count Today’s multi agency collaboration solution, provides an unmatched, end-to-end solution for police offering out of court disposals.”

MTC provides law enforcement with eligibility assessment tools for Out of Court Disposals (OoCDs), a popular form of alternative sentencing in the U.K. This partnership allows MTC to utilize Advent eLearning’s 30 plus evidence-based behaviour modification courses as a part of treatment programmes. The intervention courses cover a variety of topics and automatically translate to the selected browser language. ?“Not everyone learns the same. Our agreement with Advent allows us to fill a void that is missing with offering out of court disposals,” said Jonathan Ley, CEO of Make Time Count. “Police can now provide powerful, online treatment to those that qualify while reducing investigation time and improving sanction rates. I’m excited to see where this partnership takes us!”

About Make Time Count

Make Time Count Today originated from work carried out with London Probation in 2018-20. After observing service users (people on Probation) and Probation Officers, we realised that there was an:?

• Opportunity to help offenders and victims???
• Opportunity to improve the processes and systems via effective use of technology

Thus, the ‘AirBnB for Help’ was born, which takes form in our Connected Justice Platform. Make Time Count has since been working with Police Forces across the country since 2020 on the optimal solution for Out of Court Disposals. Our technology platform fully automates the steps involved in the OoCD process and provides an end to end operating model that will:?

• Eliminate much of new proposed two-tier workload from front-line staff?
• Significantly reduce the overall cost of running out of Court disposals?
• Link on-the-street decisions with conditions run by community groups and providers
• Provide unparalleled insights into the proportionality of Officer decision making
• Develop an understanding of the appropriateness of interventions and support future condition selection

The solution has been co-created by representatives from a cross-Force coalition.? The solution is now built, has been operationally tested in the Kent and Met Forces, and is now ready to roll-out.
