Released on 31/10/2005
A group of NHS trusts have achieved potential savings of nearly 30 per cent on this year's bill for IT Hardware via an on-line auction.
In conjunction with Collaborative Procurement organisations, a two-hour e-auction, organised by the Office of Government Commerce's Coordinated Procurement Division and run by TradingPartners saw 11 IT hardware suppliers battle to get the business of 137 NHS Trusts, grouped into six regional consortia. Between them, these consortia account for nearly a third of all the desktops and laptops needed by the NHS over the next 18 months.
