Children who experience out-of-home Care, therefore need quality recordkeeping systems to develop and nurture their sense of identity and connectedness to family and community; to account for their Care experiences; and to prevent, detect, report, investigate, and take action against child neglect and abuse. Those involved in providing care services and supporting children experiencing family dislocation need access to efficient, effective, and responsive information systems — driven by quality recordkeeping — to ensure the highest standards and continuity of care. The need for such systems does not disappear when a child leaves care. Many inquiries, including the recently completed Australian Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse, have highlighted the lifelong importance of these childhood records. In inquiry after inquiry, testimony after testimony3, Care Leavers have highlighted the difficulties they have faced in finding and accessing records in the search for identity and memory, (re)connecting with family, holding the child- welfare system accountable for decisions and actions, and seeking redress for abuse and neglect (Mendes & Snow, 2016).

Beyond the original partners, we found few organizations and companies that wanted to use the BRIDGE ID for data interoperability to keep databases synchronized and current. It was hard to penetrate the market for unique organizational identifiers among established and well-funded vendors such as LEI, DUNNS, and a large number of country-based identification systems world-wide.
