Case Study: National Health Service (NHS) achieves €42M procurement savings and rapid BI rollout with Qlik

NHS Procurement Hub takes Innovation Lead with 12 week QlikView BI Project

The North West NHS Collaborative Procurement Hub (NWCPH), part of the NHS overseeing 38 Trusts and roughly €1.5 billion in annual spend, faced a fragmented reporting environment: financial and purchasing data lived in multiple systems, reporting was manual and slow, and managers lacked timely visibility to monitor spend, supplier compliance and identify savings across the Trust network.

Qlick-iT deployed QlikView (70 licenses, Server and Publisher) in under 12 weeks to automate data consolidation, provide flexible drill-down analytics, and give both Hub and Trust users shared, self-service insights with minimal training. The solution was delivered on time and on budget, saved hours of management time, improved procurement performance and cross‑Trust collaboration, smoothed integration of new Trusts, and contributed to €42 million in procurement savings over two years.
