Payroll framework

London Procurement Partnership - Commercial advantage for the NHS by the NHS

Payroll, HR Administration and Transactional Recruitment Services framework puts two trusts on road to £2m savings

In response to Department of Health and CIPFA reports into the savings potential of improving back office efficiency, NHS London Procurement Partnership (LPP) has created a flexible framework which enables NHS trusts to realise those benefits – and two trusts are already on the road to saving £2m.

The new agreement went live in November 2012 and will run until 2016. WLMHT had identified a need to outsource non-core services. The key success factor for WLMHT was the need to deliver sustainable savings whilst maintaining and improving service quality. The successful service provider is saving the trust approximately £300,000 a year.

A benchmark review by C&I in 2012 of their payroll service provider demonstrated that the trust’s existing payroll contract was not providing value for money. C&I employ approximately 1,500 staff. LPP managed a mini competition for C&I, and the outcome is a quality payroll service which is also making savings for the trust of approximately £130,000 a year.
