About the work
Why the work is being done Medical Information Services (Med IS) (Programme CORTISONE and Defence Healthcare Delivery Optimisation Programme (DHDO)) require specialist Business Delivery support for the delivery of an Eco-System of Med IS capability to meet the requirements of the Defence Medical Services. CORTISONE is an incremental delivery of new capability that will replace current Services delivered as a combination of individual contracts and a Fully Managed Service. The intent of the DHDO programme is to reimagine and restructure the siloed, increasingly unaffordable and unsustainable model of Defence Primary Healthcare (DPHC) delivery in the Firm Base and leverage proven digital products and services to enable an ‘At Scale’ flexible delivery model of DPHC services across groups of partnered facilities. The Med IS vision is to replace current Services with a collection of Authority supported COTS Applications and Services to meet the need in all global settings. Some capability is being delivered now with further delivered planned once Business Cases are approved from Q2 FY 21/22.
Problem to be solved The Programme needs specialist expertise who can support the team to secure Business Case Approval through the MoD and Cabinet Office processes and then support procurement and delivery activity. The specialist will be required to work with the Authority and its Enterprise of existing contracts to lead/support activities including; Business Case (BC) Assurance and Approval activities, generation of BC Cost Models (including CAAS/CAT approvals), Benefits Management / Realisation, Quality Assurance/Documentation, Governance, Planning, management of Dependencies, generation/upkeep of supporting Artefacts including MDAL, ITEAP, TLMP, Procurement and Commercial Strategies. They will also be required to lead Market Engagement activities pre-competition and provide SME input to scheduled Governance Meetings and Programme Boards. The Delivery Team will also require resources to deliver some of the SAFe Agile roles to lead/support the Programme delivery methodology, eg RTE and Scrum Master with Knowledge Transfer/Coaching to upskill the Delivery Team. The fully detailed SOR can be requested from michael.yung101@mod.gov.uk.
