Request

 I have provided more context about the FDP if you need it: The FDP is a platform software that will enable every NHS Trust and Integrated Care System (ICS) to bring together operational data to support NHS staff in accessing the information in one safe and secure environment. This platform will be able to connect other data platforms together which should facilitate the integration across all health and care organisations (https://www.england.nhs.uk/digitaltechnology/nhs-federated-data-platform/).

I was hoping you’d be able to answer the following question under the Freedom of Information Act:

1. FDP queries:

a) Are you currently using the FDP? – No

i. If the answer is No to Q1a), are you using other tools or software instead that provide the same functionality? – Yes, if you count the Trust Data Warehouse.

ii. Would you be able to provide a couple of examples? - SQL Data Warehouse

b) Do you have any plans to integrate into the FDP – Not at present.

c) Do you have any plans to build on top of the FDP (e.g. any additional functionalities)? – N/A

d) If the answer is Yes to Q1c), please can you select from the following list of categories of things that you are looking to build on top of the FDP:

i. Population health management and analytics

ii. Elective recovery

iii. Care coordination (joining up care, discharges, anticipatory care, virtual wards, elective hubs)

iv. Vaccination and immunisation,

v. Supply chain management

vi. Resource management

vii. Healthcare workflow management

2. Which procurement frameworks do you most often use to procure technology? Please select from the list below:
