This is a replacement of the existing NHS England endorsed FWA. NHS England is heavily invested in initiatives that improve patient outcomes and relieving pressure on hospitals. There is a growing need for Digital Dictation, Speech/Voice Recognition, Outsourced Transcription, and associated services in the NHS. These technologies offer significant benefits in terms of efficiency, accuracy, and reducing administrative burdens, which are crucial for an organization facing high demand and striving for digital transformation. The ongoing development of AI and cloud-based solutions will likely further enhance the capabilities and adoption of these services within the NHS. There will be continuous need for the service as Contracting Authorities are aligning with the NHSE initiative to push for digital tools, including transcription services, to help manage the high volume of documentation efficiently. The market is dynamic and there will be need for Contracting Authorities and service providers to align with the changing regulations. For the past 4 (four) years 14 Trusts procured the services captured under the proposed FWA amounted to £9,575,319.00. £2,235,563.00 from 8 Trusts went through the FWA which is 23% of the total spend. There is a big opportunity to channel this entire spend through NHSCS FWA which secures compliance as well as value for money solutions. The framework will be divided into 6 lots, as follows: Lot 1: Products and/or Services Catalogue Lot 2: Digital Dictation service solution with AI Technology Lot 3 Digital Dictation service solution without AI Technology Lot 4: Outsourced transcription service solution with AI Technology Lot 5 Outsourced transcription service solution without AI Technology Lot 6: Managed service solution The beneficiaries of the services are NHS Patients receiving Healthcare Services, service users or Citizens within a Local or Central Government organisation within the wider Public Sector Organisations.

This is a replacement framework for the current Sustainbale Estates Framework awarded under PCR2015. The framework agreement is intended to provide a quick and legally-compliant route to market for NHS, and other public sector, organisations to procure services to enable the decarbonisation of their built environments.

This is intended to include all NHS and other public sector organisations in the United Kingdom. Lot Structure This framework is a single lot to enable flexibility to compete and award across multiple service lines. The sixteen service lines under this framework are: 1 Consultancy: 2 Works 2A - Sustainable Insulation 2B - Natural Ventilation 2C - Energy Efficient Windows and Doors 2D - Heat Pumps/Passive Cooling Systems 2E - Combined Heat and Power Systems 2F - Rainwater Harvesting 2G - Energy & Water Efficient Appliances 2H - Energy-Efficient Lighting Systems 2I - Solar Shading/Canopy Cover 2J - Solar Film 2K - Water efficient system 2L - Energy efficient system 2M – Electric Vehicle Charging Systems/Stations 3 Power generation and storage: 3A - Solar Power Generation and Storage 3B - Wind Power Generation and Storage 4 Nature-based solutions: 4A - Living Walls 4B - Rainwater Gardens 4C - Green Roof Spaces 4D - Wellbeing Green Spaces 4E – Kitchen Garden and Allotment Solutions– Prepare spec for this 4F – Gardening & Landscaping Services Lot 5: Bespoke Service
