We utilise our extensive experience across all sectors of the healthcare economy to support our clients to become great commissioners and excellent providers of NHS healthcare.

We’re the official support consultants to the NHS Benchmarking Network and support over 8,000 NHS professionals with strategic decision making and service improvement.

Who are the NHS Benchmarking Network?

The NHS Benchmarking Network is the world's largest healthcare benchmarking and good practice forum. Our success is based on producing user friendly, timely audit outputs to support participants with quality improvements.

Through our work with the Network, we deliver the National Audit of Care at the End of Life (NACEL), CVDPREVENT, and NHS England Learning Disability Improvement Standards project. In previous years, we have also delivered multiple iterations of the National Audit of Intermediate Care.

Our key skills are in working with NHS organisations at the national, regional, and local level to help them meet the challenges and opportunities of the NHS Long Term Plan.

We bring unique comparative data and insight to support policy review, resource allocation, and identification of efficiencies.

Our work is customised to meet your requirements. As an independent team we can respond quickly and flexibly to meet the demands of your project. We will listen to your concerns and help you work out how to tackle new challenges as local and national initiatives develop, to gain the best position for your organisation.

Our business is based on getting to know our customers and building strong relationships. We do the work ourselves because we care about the outcome.
