It’s so important that the partners we choose fully understand the IT healthcare demands we experience day to day. Block is that rare commodity that does, and it makes all the difference.
We needed a partner that could not only understand the healthcare sector, but that also understood our vision, our culture and the difference we really wanted to make within healthcare.
Block was absolutely instrumental in helping us refine the selection of equipment and ensuring the configuration was world-class.
We began looking at the potential of virtualising our core services, and quickly discovered that not only would it help centralise and better manage our IT estate, it would also mean that our existing equipment could be re-purposed and perform faster, delivering a more efficient, and in many situations, mobile experience. Likewise, we finally felt that we had a solution to removing the end-user log-on, password and compliance concerns helping us to lower risk and improve quality.
Through a competitive tender process, we selected Block as our solution provider. Having worked with them before, we had confidence in their understanding of our needs and approach to healthcare project delivery. They demonstrated a high level of expertise and know-how of what would be required to succeed.
After due market assessment, we chose Block to help us provide the trust with the necessary technical platform to support our operational services and 3,000+ users going forward.
Reduced risk of outages, improved performance and on-going affordability and manageability were key requirements. Plus we wanted this complex task handled with the minimum disruption to our users.
Block was chosen because of the quality of understanding they had of our business and clinical drivers for the project. The fact that Block’s team was able to build a strong and positive relationship with us early on made the choice easier.
We needed a partner who could understand our systems and the challenges of our portfolio, Block demonstrated the highest level of digital knowledge, had a strong desire to engage, has an established supply chain and could work in partnership with us to deliver a solution across our shopping centres.
We needed an effective solution to better support and manage a varied PC estate at Whipps Cross hospital. Implementing VDI has brought us onto a faster, more consistent and reliable PC platform; providing our staff the necessary foundation to build further technology enablers upon, ultimately helping us to achieve our goal of delivering excellent patient care.
