eSafety | Digital Forms Solution​

Overview

eSafety implemented a Digital Forms Solution to rapidly deliver accessible, scalable, and secure public‑facing digital forms within a complex technical environment. The solution was delivered using The Factor’s FormFactor solution, deployed on Microsoft Power Platform foundations, and aligned to eSafety’s broader digital and regulatory transformation objectives.

The engagement prioritised speed, accessibility, and long‑term sustainability, while ensuring the solution fitted seamlessly into eSafety’s existing architecture and operating model.

Operating within a complex environment

The Digital Forms Solution was delivered within a mixed on‑premises and cloud environment, requiring integration with existing eSafety endpoints rather than introducing new patterns or dependencies.

Delivery was undertaken collaboratively with eSafety’s infrastructure and technical teams, ensuring alignment with established security controls, networking requirements, and integration standards. This approach allowed the solution to be introduced with minimal disruption while maintaining confidence across infrastructure, security, and application stakeholders.

Delivery under tight timeframes

The solution was delivered within a seven‑week timeframe, focused on standing up complex, long‑form digital submissions. These forms included advanced logic, multiple sections, and accessibility requirements that are traditionally difficult to deliver quickly using standard tooling.

The Digital Forms Solution enabled eSafety to spin up working forms rapidly, allowing early validation and iteration despite the compressed delivery window.

Accessibility and user experience by design

Accessibility was a core driver for the Digital Forms Solution. By using FormFactor as the product underpinning the solution, eSafety was able to deliver high‑quality, accessible forms that go beyond what is typically achievable using out‑of‑the‑box Power Pages alone, particularly for long and complex forms.

This ensured accessibility was embedded from the outset, rather than treated as a retrofit or compliance exercise.

Enablement‑led delivery approach

The engagement was deliberately structured around upskilling and enablement, rather than long‑term vendor dependency. eSafety retained ownership of discovery, prioritisation, and environment configuration, while The Factor provided targeted technical expertise, assurance, and guidance.

This approach supports eSafety’s objective of building internal capability, enabling teams to confidently create, modify, and manage digital forms as requirements evolve.

Ongoing value through platform licensing and managed services

eSafety continues to use the Digital Forms Solution through ongoing FormFactor licensing, providing a scalable foundation to create and deploy digital forms across the organisation. This is complemented by monthly Application Managed Services (AMS), which provide access to specialist support, advisory services, and deep product expertise when required.

Together, these services provide sustained value by:

  • Supporting continuous improvement without large project overheads
  • Providing assurance as new forms and capabilities are introduced
  • Enabling eSafety to scale usage confidently over time

Built for scale and sustainability

The Digital Forms Solution provides eSafety with a scalable, enterprise‑ready capability, designed to support the creation and deployment of all required digital forms while maintaining consistency, governance, and accessibility standards.

By fitting cleanly into eSafety’s existing technology landscape and focusing on internal capability uplift, the solution strengthens eSafety’s long‑term digital maturity without undermining its role as an independent regulator.
