Emergency Department Digital Registration & Triage Solution - Market Engagement

University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust ("UHB") is a large specialist teaching hospital that runs the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham, Birmingham Chest Clinic, Heartlands Hospital, Good Hope Hospital, Solihull Hospital and various community services across the region.

The Trust is looking to source a solution which replaces the current ways of working for registering and triaging ambulatory patients who arrive at the Emergency Departments (EDs). This will aim to reduce pressure on EDs, improve operational performance, improve patient outcomes, and improve ways of working for staff.

The solution should aim to deliver, but is not limited to, the below requirements. These are draft requirements which are subject to change. Please note that not all requirements on this list are essential; they are included for the purposes of this Market Engagement Process.

Suppliers who are able to offer solutions relevant to this requirement are invited to express an interest and respond to a market engagement questionnaire. Further details on how to do this are contained within the additional information section of this notice.

This exercise is intended to provide potential bidders with the opportunity to review the Authority's Briefing Document and to provide information regarding the services they can offer that could meet these outline requirements. This builds on the Authority's commitment to engage with the market, by sharing information and seeking input from the market to enable us to develop the final specification and determine the appropriate route to market in a fair and transparent manner.

Additional information:

Suppliers wishing to participate in this market engagement exercise and express an interest in this requirement should respond to the questionnaire via the online form on the Bravo Portal by 13:00 on Monday 30th May 2022.
