UC4 Relieves Growing Pains for NHS Shared Business Services

NHS Shared Business Services (SBS) was launched in 2005 as a 50-50 joint venture between the Department of Health and Xansa (acquired by Steria in 2007).

NHS Shared Business Services primarily provides finance, accounting and payroll services to support NHS Trusts, and also provides a number of value added services to enable trusts to have improved financial reporting systems.

NHS Shared Business Services already has over 100 clients supported by service centres in Leeds, Bristol and Hampshire, using the Oracle Financials 11i platform.

In addition to building shared services to support clients NHS SBS needed to develop and deploy a solution capable of supporting rapid business growth. As more NHS Trusts joined SBS, there was an increased demand on financial transaction processing, in turn leading to an increased IT workload. Integral to the success of

NHS SBS is the ability to scale its operations to provide maximum service quality and value to its clients.

Period end close and month-end reporting are recurring peaks in accounting calendars that have to be completed by all Trusts to fixed timetables. At NHS SBS, a real advantage to managing the transaction processing during these peak times was to automate systems where possible.
