Medical Locums Market Engagement

Medical Locums Market Engagement

Additional information: The NHS Collaborative Procurement Partnership (CPP) is formed of four regional procurement hubs namely: North of England Commercial Procurement Collaborative NHS London Procurement Partnership NHS Commercial Solutions and East of England NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub. Collectively, CPP puts in place a range of competitive contracts and frameworks to support the NHS in ensuring maximum value is gained from its investments in patient care. CPP is in the process of preparing a tender for a national medical locum framework agreement.
