Tender description
The Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) has spoken to a wide range of Local Authorities (LAs) and IT suppliers about the challenges and opportunities they face in the Adult Social Care sector. A consistent theme came up – that the Case Management System (CMS) market was not functioning effectively; systems were not performing as expected, LAs were finding procurement excessively difficult, and suppliers were facing major cost pressures. DHSC decided to explore this market in more detail and provide greater support. This is to enable the market to sustainably innovate and produce efficient and effective systems that best serve the needs of people requiring care.
