We look forward to extending our solutions and support to a raft of new public sector organisations, delivering the considerable benefits of a streamlined and straightforward, well-priced and assured procurement process.”
Hosted by Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust, LPP aims to improve procurement and commercial efficiencies across the UK health economy. It aims to deliver the highest quality patient and social care by obtaining improved quality of goods and services through the provision of world class procurement, commercial services, and leverage. The subsequent savings will be reinvested, to enhance the quality of patient care, their safety and to reduce process inefficiencies and waste. LPP is also providing competent purchased healthcare project management support that meets the needs of participating Authorities.
The framework was originally formed to support NHS trusts, foundation trusts, clinical commissioning groups, GP federations and other health and social care providers within the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland. Now open to all the Public Sector UK-wide, it utilises a number of suppliers, including Konica Minolta, to cover digital solutions and associated hardware or software.
