## Notice

NWSSP Wish to engage with prospective suppliers in relation to the planned procurement of a new digital stock ordering and workflow process service for the All-Wales Pharmacy Technical service.

The TRAMS programme is a strategic Welsh Government programme delivered in partnership with NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership and the Health Boards/Trusts to transform Pharmacy Technical Services in Wales. The Minister for Health and Social Services endorsed the new service in an announcement on 17 March 2021. The Digital System Project is one of the main projects that underlines this programme, which has Welsh Government approval. The Digital System will become the backbone, which will underpin the operation of the new Pharmacy Technical Service.
