St Georges NHS chooses Business Intelligence to support NpfIT
22.01.09 - St Georges Healthcare NHS Trust, one of the biggest hospitals in the country, has selected CACI's InView data warehouse and business intelligence solution. InView will be used to support business continuity as the Trust adopts the Cerner Patient Admin System (PAS) within the National Programme for IT and prepare for Foundation Trust status.
InView, which utilises a Microsoft based data warehouse and Business Objects front end reporting and performance analysis, was selected for its ease of use, speed of reporting and in-depth analysis functionality. The solution will be used to provide clinical, financial and management teams with self-service access to a wide range of reports and analyses, including Payment by Results, the 18-week RTT pathway and executive balanced scorecards.
Data from across the Trusts' core systems, including PAS, Radiology, A&E, Critical Care Finance and HR, will all be accessible via a centralised web reporting interface, and will provide a major step forward in providing information at a local level, whilst satisfying national reporting requirements. InView will replace the Trust's spreadsheet based reporting system.
Wendy McCarthy, Head of Information at St Georges Healthcare NHS Trust commented,
"As we move over to the National Programme and prepare to achieve Foundation Trust status, the quality and availability of Trust data becomes paramount. InView will help us to improve this by expanding our feeder systems, centralising data and giving users access to information in a format they can use more effectively. The feature-rich technology offered by InView and CACI's wealth of NHS experience will help us a great deal in our transition to NpfIT and Cerner PAS."
St Georges selected InView from CACI following a full tender process.
