Digital Onboarding with the NDIS and PRODA
The Maica solution has been integrated natively into the NDIS digital systems. In order to enable this connection, a number of technical steps are required as outlined in this article. The Maica (and Vertic) team will assist our client’s technical teams to complete these steps.
Technical Questionnaire Complete
The first step in the onboarding process is the completion of a technical questionnaire for submission to the NDIS. We have completed the majority of the technical questions and only require our clients to provide some organisational details. Please complete the Onboarding Survey so we can submit the questionnaire on your behalf.
Action: Please complete the Onboarding Survey to enable us to submit the technical questionnaire to the NDIS on your behalf.
PRODA Membership
The next step is to be set with a PRODA account. PRODA is essentially the authentication mechanism to access the NDIS APIs and digital systems; think of it like logging into an online service with your Google account.
Action: Please register both Production
and Development
accounts with PRODA.
To register for PRODA accounts, use the following links:
Once your PRODA account has been set up (both for Production
and Development
), you will need to add the Maica team as a Member to your PRODA account, as per the following steps:

Once the Vertic team has been added as a Member, please provide the following permissions:
Device-Management
Service-Link-Management
Owner-Access
This access will enable our team to set up and manage all required configurations on your behalf. If you are uncomfortable to provide this access, you can manage devices and services yourself (guided by the Vertic team).
Action: Add the Vertic team to both your PRODA Production
and Development
accounts.
NDIS Portal Access
The last step in the onboarding process is to include Vertic into your NDIS API Developer portal. As with PRODA, there are also two environments with this portal, as per the below:
NDIS Development API Portal (Development)
NDIS Development API Portal (Production)
Once you have access to the NDIS Developer Portal (both Development and Production), the Vertic team needs to be invited as a App Developer using the following steps:
Log into the NDIS Developer Portal as per the links above for either Development or Production
