Outbound Patient Correspondence & Communications
Dear Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust,
1: Does the Trust currently print patient appointment letters and correspondence in house or is this outsourced to a supplier?
2: What volume of pages are printed by the trust each year (an average for a rolling 12 month period is fine)?
3: If the outbound mail/printing service is outsourced, who is the current contract with?
4: If outsourced, when is the current contract due for renewal?
5: What framework was used for the procurement of that contract?
6: How much does the Trust spend annually (rolling 12 months is fine) on third-party print contracts?
Yours faithfully,
Daniel Stonard
