Since Inception, the Rembrace Project Activity Manager (PAM), as a smart digital business intelligence solution, has become essential to all things positive in procurement at UCLH. From pipeline, workplan, project management, cost improvement and comprehensive reporting capabilities, this digital workflow will allow UCLH to greatly improve upon our best-in-class targets, further immerse ourselves in the digital age, along with meeting our professional, financial, and supporting obligations to the wider Trust and Integrated care system (ICS).
The team have onboarded workplans, cost improvement schemes and have been impressed as an end-to-end solution, to include the detailed and bespoke reporting suite, and have improved relationships through associated functionality allowing for providing in-depth analytics to wider colleagues. It has been designed and developed with NHS usability in mind, and it continues to evolve alongside UCLH locally and the wider NHS.
The level of development to align to individual Trust nuances allows the solution to adapt quickly and responsively. UCLH has found this to be refreshing and supportive. We are enjoying our relationship with Rembrace.
PAM has changed how we approach the delivery and reporting of the Procurement Work Plan.
The PAM platform provides our teams with functionality and reporting to track projects, forecast savings and benefits – a transformation in the recording and reporting of the activity Procurement and Sourcing teams at Oxford University Hospital Trust deliver.
The Rembrace team delivered a simple-to-use system ‘that keeps delivering’ and we look forward to the next level of developments that will enable Oxford University Procurement Teams to present further towards our Social and Sustainability objectives.
PAM is the most effective CIP tracking system that I have used in my 20+ years in procurement. PAM has become pivotal to how my team and I manage and report on the Procurement CIP performance for King’s College Hospital and KIFM. Through controlled workflow and management reports, the system provides an unparalleled level of governance and assurance that has assisted us greatly in tracking our CIP Target whilst providing insight when our schemes have fallen behind or been adjusted. The self-service reporting functionality has drastically reduced the time that we previously spent validating data and producing reports for our stakeholders. Finally, when we have demonstrated the system to colleagues, external regulators or senior visitors it has always been viewed as an essential assist for delivering our CIP.
Ashley developed a relational database to enable us to capture hundreds of variables on over 2000 patients receiving Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) at GOSH since 1979. The database has been invaluable to BMT clinicians at GOSH and around the world enabling us to examine and re-examine outcomes of BMT procedures in children, and hence improve the results of BMT for generations of patients to come.
Our study database built by Rembrace has allowed us to hold our data on over 600 patients in an organised and easily accessible way. The database is very user friendly and has provided a platform for rapid data extraction, allowing us to contribute to both national and international studies and analyses. The system is easily adapted to suit our research needs as the study continues to progress and grow.
Rembrace designed a database for our feasibility study of acupuncture for cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. We found the database extremely useful, and met all our research needs.
