Notice Title

Digital Resource Discovery Consultancy

Notice Description

HEE directly and indirectly invests in digital evidence and knowledge resources for the NHS in England, and in the infrastructure which enables access and management of these resources, at national, regional and local level. In a changing digital landscape, there is scope to modernise and streamline this digital resource access and support infrastructure, to improve both user experience and return on investment.
