Notice Title

Future NHS Workforce Solution (including Electronic Staff Record (ESR) Services)

Notice Description

The Authority require a new transformed integrated workforce management solution for the NHS in England and Wales. The current Electronic Staff Record (ESR) service includes HR and payroll; learning; talent management; Total Reward Statements and workforce reporting. It is supported by a supply of systems, support and auxiliary services that enable its effective utilisation. ESR currently pays over 1.8m NHS employees every month, equivalent to around five percent of the UK workforce. The future NHS workforce solution will fulfil the ambition of providing the NHS with a user centred digital workforce solution to empower people from both national and local organisations to carry out their roles effectively and efficiently, supporting them through their journey with the NHS. NHSBSA require a supplier to manage the ESR service, transform, develop, implement and manage a future NHS workforce solution and once migration of user organisations completes, decommission the ESR service. Documents are available on the Atamis e-Tendering system, for which you will need to register if you do not already have an account. https://health-family-contract-search.secure.force.com/ProSpend__CS_ContractPage?SearchType=Projects&uid=a078d000000thtNAAQ&searchStr=&sortStr=Recently+Published&page=1&filters=&County= Help information including a video can be founds on the Home page. https://health-family.force.com/s/Welcome
