## Description

The Integrated Risk and Intelligence Service \(IRIS\) provides a service to identify both singleton and organised fraud and error\. Post-crisis IRIS has been challenged to be near real time and adapt faster to changing Modus Operandi\. To improve fraud and error prevention, and support the drive towards self-service interactions we need to run better rules with increased accuracy, increase the use of machine learning, improving predictive modelling and make use of a new Case Management system and Identity service to assess activities for referral\.
