NHS IT Supplier Misses Deadline

The Lorenzo Patient Administration System was due to go live at hospitals operated by the Morecambe Bay University Hospital NHS Trust in Kendell on the 31st March 2010, however the deadline was missed. The £12 Billion plus programme to drive forward NHS IT has been dogged by issues including missed deadlines, poor management & supplier performance.

The Department of Health (DoH) has told CSC to provide a revised plan for how the system will be implemented otherwise it could be dismissed as a supplier. A DoH spokesperson said that hospitals were keen for the company to deliver the system, however dismissal was an option. The spokesperson went on to say that \”within the contract there is provision for the supplier to be given some time to come up with a revised timescale and we have to allow that\”.
