NDIS Participant Management Software | BondiByte
Participant management

Everything you need to manage the participant journey, in one connected platform.

Managing participant information shouldn't mean switching between systems or re-entering the same details over and over.

BondiByte brings participant records, onboarding, service agreements, funding, support coordination, budgets, documents, and billing into one connected platform, from first enquiry through to service delivery.

One participant journey

More than a client database.

Participant management is about much more than storing contact details.

Every participant record connects with service agreements, funding, rostering, support coordination, timesheets, invoicing, and compliance, so your whole organisation works from one accurate source.

Connected operations

Connected operations from day one.

Every participant record connects with your workforce, rostering, service agreements, billing, compliance, and audit evidence, creating one operating picture for your organisation.

Participant records sit in your secure, Australian-hosted workspace with role-aware access, so the right team members see the right information, even as your participant base grows.

Every part of the participant record, in depth.

Onboarding, representatives, billing and history are parts of one record, not separate products. Here is what each part does.

Participant onboarding

Create the record once, properly. Every field captured up front is a rostering question, an unsendable invoice or a blank agreement you never have to chase later.

  • NDIS numbers validated as you type, and addable later if not yet confirmed
  • Contact and communication preferences staff actually see, including best time to call
  • Representative or guardian plus an emergency contact, with after-hours clarity
  • Plan management type, plan manager, support coordinator and LAC on the record
  • Site-based rostering or a standalone community roster, matched to how support is delivered
  • The first history event is written at creation, and every later change is recorded

Representatives & consent

Record who acts for a participant and exactly what they are authorised to do, so the right person signs and the right person is informed.

  • Defined representative types: guardian, plan nominee, parent, carer, power of attorney and more
  • Four explicit permissions: sign agreements, make decisions, receive information, receive invoices
  • Every permission starts switched off, so recorded authority is always a deliberate decision
  • Representative details flow into service agreement templates automatically
  • Changes to details or permissions are logged in the participant's history

Billing profile

Every participant pays differently: agency managed, plan managed or self managed. The billing profile holds who pays, where the invoice goes and how it should arrive.

  • Plan Managed, Self Managed or NDIA Managed, recorded once and used everywhere
  • Plan manager organisation, contact, email, phone and ABN ready for invoices
  • Billing address, attention-to line and a delivery preference per participant
  • Invoices cannot be sent until the profile holds what its management type requires
  • The validation names each missing detail, not just "incomplete"

History & audit trail

When someone asks who changed a participant's details and when, the answer is a timeline, not a shrug.

  • Profile, status, billing, documents, agreements and coordinator changes captured automatically
  • Every event names the person who made the change and the time it happened
  • Searchable, so the moment you need is a query away rather than a scroll
  • Coordinator assigned, changed and removed events name who replaced whom
  • History follows the same access rules as the record itself

Client Intelligence

A governed AI summary of a participant's recent shift and incident reports, for when you need the shape of a period without reading every entry.

  • Generate a summary for the last 7, 14, 30 or 90 days, or a custom date range
  • Choose the sources yourself: shift reports, incident reports, or both
  • Add an optional focus note of up to 500 characters to steer what the summary looks for
  • A period with no matching reports is refused with a clear message, not guessed at
  • Client Intelligence is one of the AI-assisted capabilities your organisation turns on, and it stays off until you do

Goes further for coordination-led services.

Support Coordination

The whole coordination job in one workspace: the caseload, billable case notes, plan budgets and burn, goals, tasks, referrals, reports and NDIS-ready claims.

Sites & roster areas

A site is where support actually happens: a SIL home, a respite house, a community access area. Each one carries its own participants, staff teams, requirements and operating rules.

Frequently asked questions.

Do we need the NDIS number before creating a participant?

No. A participant can be created without one and the number added when it is confirmed. When it is entered, BondiByte checks it is a valid 9 or 10 digit number.

What happens when a participant leaves our service?

Deactivate the record. Everything is kept, the deactivation is logged in their history, and further operational changes are blocked until the participant is reactivated.

What can a representative be authorised to do?

Whether they can sign service agreements, make service decisions, receive client information and receive invoices, plus whether you have consent to contact them. Each is a separate setting, and every one starts switched off.

What happens if billing details are incomplete?

The invoice send is stopped and the message lists exactly what is missing, such as the plan manager contact, the billing email or the billing address. Nothing goes out half-addressed.

Does onboarding detail flow into agreements and invoices?

Yes. Plan management, representative and contact details populate service agreement templates automatically, and the billing profile drives who each invoice is sent to.

Can any staff member read any participant's history?

No. History follows the same access rules as the participant record, so users only see timelines for participants they are allowed to work with, and every event names who made the change and when.

What does Client Intelligence show?

An AI-generated summary of a participant's shift and incident reports over a period you choose, 7, 14, 30, 90 days or custom, from the sources you pick. It reads what your team already recorded; it does not add new facts, and it will not summarise a period with nothing in it.
