Waiting list

Full up? A place frees up, an offer goes out.

Four configurable priority strategies, automatic recalculation and time-limited offers, with no manual step for staff.
/01
FIFO

Strict order of arrival

First come, first served. The simplest rule, and the easiest one to defend.

/02
IN-AREA +

Residency bonus

Order of arrival, but a household inside the area takes priority over one outside it.

/03
SIBLINGS +

Sibling bonus

Priority rises with the number of brothers and sisters already enrolled in the same activity.

/04
WEIGHTED MIX

Weighted multi-criteria

Combines arrival, residency and siblings, with an optional means-test weighting that favours lower-income households.

Ranking recalculates on its own.

When a place frees up, the platform offers it to whoever is first in line, within a configurable acceptance window. Once that window closes, the offer expires and moves on to the next family.

  • Automatic recalculationEvery rank is recomputed on each new entry, by a scheduled task.
  • Time-limited offerConfigurable per activity. Expiry and the next offer both happen on their own.
  • Manual reorderingStaff can step in by drag and drop. A reason is mandatory and goes straight to the audit log.
  • Live tracking for familiesThe parent sees their position and priority score, and accepts or declines an offer in the app.
Multi-tenant

One platform, many authorities.

A single deployment, many local authorities, each with its own branding, domain, rules and fares.
/01

Strict isolation
