UK Public Sector Contracts & Tenders

Hywel Dda Local University Health Board is looking to put in place a long-term Digital Transformation Strategic Partner to enable us to plan, access and manage the capacity necessary to fully deliver the scale of our digital ambitions. The Strategic Partnership will do this by fully leveraging the capacity and expertise that exists, both within the Health Board and with a Strategic Partner, significantly accelerating the pace of delivery of our digital response and digital priorities. When we refer to ‘Digital Transformation Strategic Partner’ we are describing a contracted relationship with an expert technology-based supplier with skills and expertise across IT and digital. The Strategic Partner will be flexible in nature, allowing the Health Board to access additional capacity and capability at pace which will help us in delivering and supporting our digital transformation ambitions. We expect the Digital Transformation Strategic Partner to provide us with long-term, stable, and sustainable solutions. We expect the Strategic Partnership to work in an integrated way with our internal teams, maximising and leveraging both the Strategic Partnership and internal Health Board knowledge and expertise. A Digital Transformation Strategic Partner will therefore put in place much needed flexibility to sustainably manage changing peaks and troughs of future projects, responding to funding opportunities more quickly, thereby reducing over time the use of ad-hoc contractor support and achieving more sustainable outcomes for patients/citizens.
