Collaborations
Collaborating with other NHS hubs
Sustainability and Social Value (SSV) has taken an increasingly important role in the way we carry out procurement across the NHS over the last few years and will be a huge part of what we do in the future. The four NHS procurement hubs (NHS Commercial Solutions, East of England NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub, NHS London Procurement Partnership and NHS North of England Commercial Procurement Collaborative) are working together to consider Sustainability and Social Value in everything we do. By collaborating on our aims and goals, we share expertise, reduce duplication and achieve our objectives more efficiently.
There is a dedicated Sustainability and Social Value workstream which has set out clear objectives for how we want to support customers, suppliers and others in the industry to achieve and maintain sustainability.
