Insight and Analytics

NHS Benchmarking Network can provide support to members via our bespoke services.

If you’re looking to understand provision, demand, capacity, or outcomes, we can work with you to provide comprehensive and coherent evidence to support both planning and delivery.

Our bespoke projects are constructed in partnership with you.

We apply our tried, tested and successful delivery cycle to provide a bespoke package for your needs.

Your requirement may be connected to our existing membership programme - a ‘deep-dive’ into project data across organisations in a geography, system or collaborative, or it may be a specialist area of interest for you or your system.

A typical bespoke project will span 3-6 months and follow the below delivery cycle.

Phase 1: Initiation and Planning

Phase 2: Specification and Development

Phase 3: Data Collection

Phase 4: Analysis

Phase 5: Reporting and Dissemination

Examples of previous bespoke projects include:

Tailored Benchmarking Projects - Collection of additional data to support understanding of a specific area, patient cohort of condition. Utilising NHSBN technology to support data collection, reporting and analysis. This may include supplementing data from the existing NHSBN projects.

Project Insights - Presentation of findings on a specific NHSBN project across a group of participating organisations. Includes analysis, report and events. Projects have included a range of sectors, multiple systems and regions.

Themed Insights - Insights on specific themes, e.g. 'productivity', 'older people', 'urgent and emergency care', ‘corporate functions’, from multiple NHSBN projects and national data sources. Project deliverables included analysis, reports, presentations and events.

Dashboard - We have developed dashboards for members and non members who wanted to incorporate NHSBN project data, national data sources, and members own source data. Features can be switched on and off, e.g. time series, mapping, exports, API. Data is updated routinely or presented as a one off snapshot.
