NHS workforce support tailored to your needs
With decades of experience, our regional teams provide NHS organisations with bespoke workforce consultation and advice. Covering all regions in England, our teams bring together workforce specialists, from procurement experts and data specialists to supplier contract managers. When required, our regional teams leverage broader expertise from across the Alliance, to offer a highly flexible and dedicated service. Many of our team members have been Alliance customers themselves, so we truly understand the needs of NHS trusts.
As part of the NHS, we provide our NHS colleagues with workforce consultation, advice and support at no cost.
Workforce challenges that we can support with:
- Workforce planning: identifying and implementing improvements to achieve optimal balance across permanent, fixed-term, bank, agency and international staff.
- Financial challenges: achieving the best value through a range of tools and techniques.
- National policies: our strategic and operational relationships with policy makers support guidance on application and local implementation.
- System wide strategies: implementation across trust boundaries.
- Data and insights: interpretation of vast quantities of supplier data to provide bespoke reports and solutions based on evidence.
- Agency supply: optimum selection and management.
- Operational procurement support: expertise to support with the new procurement regulations and help to drive best value in competitions for new services.
- Contract management: sharing national knowledge and best practice on supplier performance.
- Staff bank strategies: selecting the best solution for your trust.
- Frameworks: selecting and accessing the right frameworks for your requirements.
- Compliance: ensuring national and local regulatory requirements are legal and compliant.
“The complexity and challenges of implementing a new contract, regional rate compliance implementation and internal process and system changes are huge and the Alliance continues to support the trust throughout this process and not just during the procurement process.”– Beth Bartholomew, Deputy Head of Sourcing at Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust.
