How the quality assurance and performance testing works
Our Quality Assurance is underpinned by our internal processes which are externally verified through our ISO standards.

We conduct thorough assessments to align Health System Supports’ solutions with the Trust requirements, ensuring compatibility effectiveness and reportability using an agreed RACI.
Our training outcomes are assessed throughout the project and are based on 360 degree reviews. We capture feedback through the design phases with your workstream leads and SMEs, ensuring clinical and operational input in training design. Pilot courses give a further opportunity to review training before the End User training commences. We closely monitor FAQs and feedback from end users to ensure continued relevance.
All of our training design is role and workflow based and guidance from vendors is localised to the NHS to drive adoption and support transformation. Although we come with proven templates and ‘starting’ documentation this is localised and relevant for each deployment.
We incorporate the lessons learnt from numerous projects to develop a training programme that is sustainable post live.
