Solent NHS Trust Business Information (BI) Data Warehouse Market Engagement

Solent NHS Trust and Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust are soon to become one of the largest NHS Foundation Trusts in the UK, specialising in mental health and learning disabilities, as well as offering physical health community-based services.

Participation in the pre-procurement market engagement process will be at each supplier's own cost. No expense in responding to this process will be reimbursed by the Trust.
