Trusts, the private sector, local authorities; consultants and suppliers meet to discuss the key issues impacting on the UK healthcare sector. Lord Carter of Coles, who chairs the NHS Procurement and Efficiency Board, and was last year commissioned
by the Department of Health to examine the ‘operational productivity’ of 22 Foundation and non-Foundation Trusts across England to see how this ‘productivity’ might be improved – driving cost savings and higher efficiency – will discuss his team’s work, and outline its findings, in the opening keynote on the second day of this year’s Healthcare Estates conference and exhibition in Manchester. The findings of Lord Carter’s team’s examination of how
‘productively’ the 22 Trusts are currently operating are summarised in an Interim Report published in June 2015 titled Review of Operational Productivity in NHS providers. The Report also sets out a number of ‘early recommendations and next steps’ to help the participating NHS Trusts, and indeed others, identify opportunities for efficiency gains and productivity improvements. Alongside the potential to save £3 billion from ‘hospital
pharmacy and medicines optimisation’, Lord Carter says in the Report that he believes £1 billion could be cut from both NHS estates and procurement management costs annually ‘by adopting best practices and modern systems’.
Four dedicated streams
With four dedicated streams devoted to Estates & Facilities; Energy & Efficiency; Engineering and Planning Design & Construction the conference offers unparalleled oppor-
n the next few weeks they will be mailing out thousands of complimentary tickets to potential visitors to the exhibition. Last year saw 3,500 attendees enjoying
tunities for those working in the NHS to improve and develop working practices. In a dedicated BIM session on Day One Dr Sarah Davidson
of Gleeds continues the theme of the conference by looking at ‘Government Soft Landings (GSL) – Driving Efficiency and Continuous Improvement; Aligning Design and Construction with Operational Asset Management and Purpose.’
Delivering an energy efficient estate
The Day One Energy & Efficiency streams presentations tackle the subjects of ‘How to Deliver and Energy-Efficient Estate….. With No Funding’ – a challenge many would believe impossi- ble but explained by Kathryn Dapré NHS National Services Scotland. Kathryn leads the Engineering and Energy team within the Strategic Facilities Directorate of NHS National Services Scotland. Kathryn’s session is preceded by Mr Howard Jones director of Estates and Facilities – Royal United Hospital Bath, who will explain how ‘Using Smart Tools to Make Hospitals Work Better.’
International flavour added
With over 65 sessions and nearly 100 speakers the IHEEM Conference offers delegates a unique opportunity to learn, catch up with colleagues and understand some of the significant challenges the NHS and new government have set.
