Introduction
HART Services is a leading community transport and home care provider in Northern NSW. They play a vital role in supporting vulnerable clients in regional cities, rural areas, and First Nations communities. As the organization grew, it faced increasing operational complexity—particularly in managing the diverse needs of clients and staff.
In response, HART Services partnered with Yes Right to develop AI-driven solutions that would modernize operations, streamline services, and boost staff satisfaction. Yes Right delivered a comprehensive AI Strategy and Roadmap, followed by the implementation of two custom LLMs: HARTbeat, focused on client-facing support, and HARTbeat-HR, dedicated to streamlining HR processes.
Solution Delivered
AI Strategy and Roadmap
Yes Right began with an in-depth evaluation of HART’s workflows and HR systems. A strategic roadmap was developed, aligned to long-term goals of efficiency and quality service delivery. The roadmap allowed HART to integrate AI incrementally without service disruption.
HARTbeat: Enhancing Client Services
HARTbeat, a custom-built language model, was designed to manage client inquiries, streamline communications, and reduce administrative overhead. Staff can now access quick, context-sensitive answers to questions about onboarding, care plans, and more—freeing up time for higher-value tasks.
HARTbeat-HR: Empowering Human Resources
HARTbeat-HR was developed to support the HR team by automating repetitive queries and processes. It assists with onboarding, staff support, and internal queries—enabling HR to focus on strategy, while giving staff fast access to accurate employment information.
Feedback Loop
Yes Right AI Consulltants worked closely with Isaac Smith, CEO of HART Services, to establish a staff feedback loop. This allowed ongoing refinement of both HARTbeat and HARTbeat-HR, improving accuracy and building a culture of continuous improvement across the organisation.
