ProCure is NHS England’s route to market for the provision of design and construction of NHS capital projects.
The framework supports NHS trusts in England to undertake capital works through access to approved supply chain partners. The framework has delivered over £17.59 bn of capital projects for the NHS in England to date.
ProCure Club
The digital platform, the ProCure Club, enables project reporting and collaboration between NHS England, contractors and trusts.
The modernised ProCure Club will have better reporting and analysis capabilities, which NHS England says will enable ‘an improved user experience’.
Parallel is a public-private partnership that specialises in interactive mapping, data visualisation and insight, primarily across the public sector. It developed the Department of Health and Social Care’s tool SHAPE.
Helen Sturdy, National head of Construction for ProCure at NHS England, said: “ProCure is a globally recognised, award winning procurement framework, that enables NHS England to support trusts throughout their projects, from concept to construction and beyond.
“Parallel is ideally placed to help us with this project, with strong experience in complex data visualisation. The new ProCure Club digital platform will help us continue to drive innovation, best practice and consistency in construction for NHS projects across the country.”
Claire Harrison, Chief Executive of Parallel, said: “ProCure is a vital procurement route for the NHS, allowing trusts to progress their capital projects at pace, drawing on the best practice gathered over twenty years and over £17 bn of projects. The platform development will ensure this insight is available at the touch of a button, alongside driving reporting efficiencies for all stakeholders involved.”
The project will take place from 2025 until 2027.
