Neutral vendor
We are an approved supplier of software based support for staffing management, such as bank and locum management software, under the CCS Framework. As such we can also provide LMS as a stand alone system for use by a Trust – where their preference is for a neutral vendor model.
As a modular system you can pick and choose the functionality you require – ensuring the solution we provide you with works with your existing processes and business model. Temporary staffing vacancies are inputted on to your secure client portal and automatically cascaded out to your preferred suppliers on their own portal. There is also the option to add your Bank and match the job to substantive and bank staff in the first instance – instantly emailing your entire bank in 5 seconds!

We will provide a detailed draft Project Plan for your review, as well as a Training Plan and Risk Register. Our Contracts and Implementation Team will have overall responsibility for the project, seeing implementation through step by step, ensuring the system is set up in line with your processes and requirements, reviewing progress and performance with you, liaising with team members and implementing any necessary changes for the roll out of the system. Your Trust will be provided with on-site training with a member of the team made available during the go live period as well, to ensure all Trust users (according to role) are clear on how the system works.
