RE: Government website CDC’s18 Mar 2023 14:14
The bottom line is , if it can be believed is that 160 CDCs will be in place by 2025! Apparently 75 where in existence last Aptl 2022 . They are obviously all at different cdc t ages if development to make them smart......and to be honest I do not knowxsg what stage of development the digital pathway will be considered. Some will get retrofitted and others as part of the new build , I guess.
However, end of 2025 is just over 2.5 years away. That's 33 months approx. Therefore, if the pathway tenders started today it would abe approx four rrendrs every month.
Surely, once get started in earnest and if FDBK prove to be a main supplier then tenders would not required and solution bought directly from their government procurement list that FDBK are listed on as sellers.
If this is the case, and FDBK do become main supplier yhen we will be in store for an avalanche of orders in a short space of time sometime in next year or so.
Just thinking aloud but have g to go through a tender process each time is a waste of NHS and FDBK time.
