NICE Guidance. Tracked from Publication to Implementation.

The NICE Guidance Implementation Tracker captures every relevant NICE guideline, maps it to your service, tracks implementation milestones, and escalates overdue guidance before it becomes a CQC finding. Evidence of implementation is producible on request.

The Problem This Solves
Organisations receive NICE guidance and circulate it by email. Implementation is not systematically tracked. When CQC asks for evidence that NICE guidance has been implemented, the organisation cannot demonstrate which guidelines apply, what was done, and when.
Regulatory Basis
NICE Guidelines · CQC Key Lines of Enquiry (Effective) · NHS Standard Contract
NHS Standard Contracts require organisations to have regard to NICE guidance. CQC assesses compliance with NICE guidance under the Effective domain. Implementation evidence must be documentable.

🗄️
nice_guidance table
Guidance register: guidance_id, nice_reference, title, publication_date, applicable_from_date, relevant_services[], implementation_lead, priority (high/standard), status ENUM.
📋
implementation_milestones table
Milestones: guidance_id, milestone_description, target_date, actual_completion_date, evidence_reference, completed_by. Multiple milestones per guideline — full implementation pathway tracked.
Overdue Escalation System
Triggers fire when implementation milestones pass their target date. 7-day pre-deadline reminder, then overdue escalation to clinical lead and governance team with days overdue.
📊
vw_nice_compliance_gap
Gap analysis view: guidelines applicable to each service with implementation status, milestone completion percentage, and overall compliance score. CQC-ready format.
🔄
New Guidance Intake Workflow
When a new NICE guideline is added, n8n workflow: notifies the relevant clinical lead, requests applicability assessment, creates implementation milestones on confirmation, and starts tracking.
📁
CQC Evidence Pack
On-demand workflow generates a NICE compliance evidence pack: guidelines by service, implementation status, milestone completion evidence, and gap analysis. Formatted for CQC inspection.

Built to Run. Not to Demo.

Every UNUS London mini solution is a production system — not a prototype. The schema runs on PostgreSQL 17.4 with full referential integrity, Row-Level Security, and an immutable audit trail from day one. The n8n workflow handles every user interaction end-to-end.

The evidence view below is representative of the live data structure you will have in your system. Every record shown reflects the actual column names, data types, and status logic in the deployed schema.
