NHS Shared Business Services (NHS SBS) was created in 2004 by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) to deliver corporate services to the NHS. A unique joint venture with Sopra Steria, a European leader in digital services and software development, their aim is to make life easier for NHS employees, patients and suppliers, and deliver value for money to the taxpayer. The Sustainable Transport and Infrastructure Framework, which runs until November 2027, is designed to support the NHS in lowering its carbon output and achieve its 2040 carbon net zero emissions ambition. The procurement framework agreement provides the NHS with a one-stop solution for all car parking needs, a simple way to find and appoint the services of fully vetted providers quickly and compliantly.
Alongside their partner, Prime plc, a place on the DBFO (design, build, fund, and operate) framework was secured. This means that Q-Park and Prime are in position to bid for and secure contracts for new Healthcare parking schemes that will then benefit the NHS and its internal stakeholders.

We have a proud history in the creation and operation of Quality Healthcare parking facilities so we look forward to continuing this in the future.
