FINAL WORD

Ability8 utilises the power of low code to help disabled Australians

Driven by the experiences of his own family in caring for their daughter Briana , Mark Condon sought to develop a platform that would assist people in similar circumstances . As a result , the development of his proprietary application , Ability8 , represents a significant innovation in the management of disability care plans .

Navigating the complexities of disability care , particularly the intricate funding and support issues , is a daunting task for many Australian families .

Mark Condon , with a professional background in enterprise software development and telecoms , knew first-hand the inefficiencies and challenges inherent in managing disability care without specialised training .
Families and caregivers often find themselves overwhelmed by administrative tasks such as scheduling care , paying for services , arranging payroll and ensuring compliance with tax and superannuation obligations .
The need for a streamlined , user-friendly solution was apparent . Furthermore , the potential for improving continuity of care through better coordination among carers , contractors , and direct employees highlighted the necessity of a robust platform that could cater to the diverse needs of the disability community .
Integrating with the National Disability Insurance Scheme ( NDIS ) is an integral part of the application – the government body playing a crucial role in the lives and wellbeing of PWD across the country .
However , developing an application of this nature traditionally takes more than knowledge and good intentions .
