Crescendo Systems have been awarded a place on the NHS LPP (London Procurement Partnership) Clinical Digital and Information Systems (CDIS) Framework
Feltham, Greater London (PRWEB UK) 6 April 2017 -- Crescendo Systems has been awarded a place on the new Clinical & Digital Information Systems Framework Agreement (CDIS), launched by NHS London Procurement Partnership (LPP).
LPP’s CDIS framework, which has a potential value of up to £1.3bn, has been developed at the request of the London NHS Chief Information Officers’ Council and the consortia of 38 NHS trusts which built the first Clinical Information Systems Framework in conjunction with LPP in 2013. More information on the framework is available at http://www.lpp.nhs.uk/categories/technology-consultancy/clinical-and-digital-information-systems/
Crescendo Systems are one of ten suppliers selected for Lot 4.7 Innovation, and are the only company providing a dedicated digital dictation and speech recognition based clinical documentation solution, Centro.
“We are thrilled to be selected as a supplier on the CDIS Framework”, said John Bendall, Operations Director, Crescendo Systems Limited, “By creating a Lot category that showcases the latest developments in clinical IT technology, CDIS provides an ideal procurement platform for our innovative Centro System which features patient-centric, clinical documentation technology and ground-breaking, speaker independent speech recognition that requires no user training”.
"We believe that CDIS is a particularly appropriate framework mechanism for Centro to be placed on", continued John, "as it was always our intention to design a future proof and complementary solution that would be both fully interoperable and enhance the workflow and productivity for hospitals investing in the exciting new generation of contemporary clinical and digital information systems such as best of breed EPR's".
The CDIS framework, which is now live, enables members to call-off from the framework (or re-open competition within it), removing the need for them to conduct full tender exercises or lengthy supplier evaluations each and every time they have a requirement; saving both time and cost associated with laborious procurement exercises.
