two.1.4) Short description

Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (GHFT) wishes to procure an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solution, focusing on finance and procurement in its initial implementation to replace a number of current systems which have come to the end of their lives. GHFT wishes to obtain a solution which would be optimal for better integration, reducing the number of systems which need to be maintained in future, enabling better transparency and a fully integrated system for budget holders and other users. The new system will initially be used by GHFT, GMS and the Charity.

One of the Trust’s Strategic Objectives is Digital Future – ‘We use our electronic patient record system and other technology to drive safe, reliable and responsive care and link to our partners in the health and social care system to ensure joined-up care’. The solution will therefore have the potential to include partners from One Gloucestershire Integrated Care System (ICS) during the lifetime of the contract.
