Consultant use CCM to improve its contract management administration at the West Hertfordshire NHS Trust
Consultant Turner & Townsend has chosen Contract Change Management system for the West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust scheme.
T&T is project manager for the trust and Medicinq Osborne is ProCure 21 principle supply chain partner of the scheme in Hemel Hempstead.
Cambridge-based Management Process Systems' internet-delivered CCM system manages the contract change processes set out in the NEC form of contract.
T&T will use CCM to improve its contract management administration on the Hemel Hempstead Hospital Interim Site.
The reconfiguration is a complex fast track project working in multiple areas simultaneously in a 鈥榣ive鈥� hospital environment where tight change management and turnaround times are key to a successful delivery.
Rupert Corbett, T&T project manager, said: 鈥淔ollowing on from the successful use of CCM at Watford General Hospital the same client/PSCP team chose to carry over its use to the new P21 scheme at Hemel Hempstead Hospital.
鈥淭he project team recognised the benefits that CCM delivered in terms of real-time administration of the contract with regards to change management and contractual timescales but also the auditable record of the project that CCM provides.鈥�
Key benefits which deliver reduced project risk and costs savings in contract administration include
鈥� Timely agreement of change
鈥� Quality assured contract administration
鈥� Early completion of final account
鈥� Improved contract management discipline
鈥� Real time visibility of risk and change issues
鈥� Improved change management
鈥� Quality assured processes and consistency of operation
鈥� Online access to risk spend information
鈥� Rigorous audit trail
鈥� Web reporting through the availability of Excel reports
The project follows the successful implementation of CCM on an NHS P21 project at Watford General Hospital.
