BT is currently negotiating with the National Health Service (NHS) about the possibility of the telecoms giant assuming the workload of Fujitsu.

A replacement is currently being sought for the Japanese IT outsourcing contractor, which has left the £12 billion computer programme.<

The abrupt departure of Fujitsu from the £996 billion NHS contract means that a company is needed urgently to take over its responsibilities and Ovum analyst Tola Sargeant claims that the IT programme has been “left in limbo”.<

ContractorUK reports that CSC is also being considered for the contract to deliver electronic patient records to the south of England, which will be awarded over the next few months, Gordon Hextall, a director of Connecting for Health told a House of Commons committee last month.

Check out this article talking about the developments within the NHS IT projects, it will be interesting to see what opportunities develop from these projects, as well as the benefits of the projects to the NHS and it’s patients. I wonder how we will manage success, we can use numerical measurements of course, but it’s often the intangible things that can illustrate a projects’ success, how easy it is to use, to work with etc.
