NHS Shared Business Services (NHS SBS) has developed a framework to help NHS Trusts buy clinical data systems.
The framework – which the NHS values at £1.25bn over six years – will save NHS trusts time and money by avoiding the long traditional tendering process when buying healthcare information systems.
Trusts can look for local suppliers on the framework and hold small competitions, so suppliers can compete for work over a shorter time and at a lower cost.
Suppliers will benefit from reducing the costs incurred in submitting individual tenders.
