NHS Digital Transformation Challenges

A recent Whitehall Monitor report by the Institute for Government found that the NHS, like nearly 40% of the UK labour market, has a lack of crucial technical and digital skills.

70% of transformation projects fail to achieve their outcomes, with lack of digital skills being the driving factor.

Filling 10,000s new Digital, Data and Technology roles across the public sector isn’t going to be achieved through recruitment alone. There aren’t enough people with the right skills available.

The loss of existing knowledge and experience cannot be underestimated. There are concerns that staff lack the digital skills needed for transformation but there are high levels of motivation to develop digital
