A Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust needed support to improve efficiency and reduce costs across Trust-wide pathology services valued at over £6 million annually.
Facing financial and operational pressures, the Trust commissioned At Scale to review existing pathology arrangements, test the market and identify sustainable, collaborative service delivery options.
We supported a long-term contract review, led market engagement and helped develop a collaborative partnership with a neighbouring NHS organisation, identifying opportunities for shared working and service improvement.
The Trust achieved improved efficiency and cost reductions through a sustainable partnership model. The approach demonstrated how collaboration between NHS organisations can address shared service challenges while delivering better value and resilience over the long term.
”At Scale brought clarity and credibility to a complex service review. Their collaborative approach helped us develop a practical partnership model that improved efficiency and delivered lasting value.
