## Notice

Hywel Dda Health Board ("HDUHB") has awarded a contract for the provision of a Medical Rostering Solution across the Health Board. This contract will facilitate the utilisation of a medical rostering system to help drive key efficiencies and cost savings through controlled management of substantive and temporary staff. The requirement need was identified following best practice recommendations which highlighted the need for a central workforce team to support implementation and ongoing improvement of rostering alongside medical workforce colleagues. The current process for rostering and shift payments involves excel submissions to payroll which can lead to over and underpayments due to the pay files not linking directly to the job plans. The system will allow the use of medical staff on the bank across the Health Board with services able to send a shift to the bank which will be displayed to all medical staff, based on skills, to allow them to fill this position. Medical staff can then access this system remotely through their personal computer (PC) or phone to book into unfilled medical bank shifts. The introduction of this rostering solution will allow job plans to directly link to rostering which will facilitate improved planning and utilisation of the medical workforce.The Health Trust Europe (HTE) ICT Solutions Three (3) framework agreement (ComIT3 - HTE-011008) provides a compliant route to source their entire information communication technology and digitisation requirements across the complete IT vendor and value-added reseller landscape ranging from hardware, software, cybersecurity and computer science solutions. This framework includes several potential providers who have achieved inclusion on the framework following a qualification process and procurement approached a supplier with links to the Welsh economy.
