Vision

We will deliver a warning service that will save lives and protect livelihoods; by providing accurate and relevant information to users who need it, when they need it, in ways they want it – so they can take the right action.

Objectives

Core

  • Deliver a replacement hazard alerting service to provide continuity of service from FWS by 22 Dec 2022 (replacement)   

Secondary - XWS will be an improvement over FWS by:

  • We will be focus on users; designing a service to meet their present needs with the flexibility to meet future needs whilst safeguarding personal data (effectiveness and compliance) 
  • The system will be designed to utilise the right technology, tools and ways of working making it simpler for all types of user (effectiveness) 
  • We will ensure that there is an increase in the timeliness and quality of information to allow users to take appropriate action  at the right time (effectiveness). 
  • We will deliver a marked increase in user satisfaction 
  • XWS is resilient and can be improved cost effectively in the future to exploit technological innovation to ensure that we continue to deliver a warning service to public and professional partners (economy) 
  • We have the flexibility to quickly improve and implement new developments ourselves so we are efficient in the delivery of  the service/products to our customers (efficiency)   
  • We will ensure the service is flexible to adapt to the increasing flood risk, maximize automation, warn people on the move (effectiveness) 
  • We will deliver a hazard alerting engine by 2023 that can be used across the EA and the UK Government (economy)
