Description

Northumbria Healthcare Facilities Management (NHFM) is part of the Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust (NHCFT). NHFM are seeking suppliers who can provide a Theatre Utilisation Software Solution.

The NHCFT current theatre management system - Nexus Sapphire - is required to be upgraded with a new solution, as the current version being used is now outdated and does not allow for correct reporting (utilisation and other items).

The current solution has an indicative 1000+ users allocated. Staff Groups consist of, but is not an exhaustible list, Secretarial, Contact Centre, Managers, Ward Clerks, Coding etc. This volume may fluctuate, down as well as up. The Trust requires a flexible licence model as it may decide to rationalise the user base, which may reduce/increase the volumes and as such Suppliers will need to give full details and costings of the licence model(s) offered. This could be a concurrent licence, perpetual licence, Subscription user licence or enterprise licence agreement model etc
