It’s not just about saving time and money, it’s about getting the NHS back to working for patients. From reducing waiting times to improving the care you provide, your buying decisions have the power to make a difference.
Use our commercial expertise, industry experience and national buying power to secure procurement deals that provide benefits for your Integrated Care System.
We collaborated with NHS England to provide ProCure 23 as part of the Construction Works and Associated Services 2 procurement framework. This means we can ensure that NHS capital works adopt:
How, where and when patient care is given is changing. There is a natural evolution towards smart healthcare services, where technology is embedded across clinical pathways and the digital patient is the new normal. It is vital that our NHS health services, staff and patients are ready for this. Because ultimately, smarter healthcare means better quality, more efficient and safer patient care.
At CCS, our technology experts are here to help you embrace your trust’s digital transformation journey, and develop a comprehensive technology procurement strategy.
With constant change in science and technology, our approach to healthcare is always evolving. We are here to help you adopt and make use of these technologies’ full potential, for the benefit of patients and your staff. Transform your provision of care with our market insight and category expertise and digitise every service across your organisation with our team’s support.
Focusing on sustainability and price, we can help you source the technology you need, from data centres to virtual wards.
