The London Clinic chooses Arkphire UK as its Technology Infrastructure Partner - £50m contract value over seven years
Arkphire, an innovator in IT transformation, has secured an initial £50m seven-year contract with The London Clinic, the UK’s largest independent charitable hospital, to be its IT transformation partner. Under the agreement, Arkphire will deliver IT outsourcing and ensure continuous and sustainable improvements in all aspects of IT.
The London Clinic is a full-service independent private hospital operating across seven sites on and around London’s renowned medical district, Harley Street. It has a pioneering cancer treatment centre in the form of its Duchess of Devonshire Wing, which is at the forefront of advancing healthcare. Current innovations include offering advanced diagnostic scanning through the latest MRI technology, use of adaptive radiotherapy for bladder cancer and the use of hydrogel spacers to minimise the side effects of prostate cancer radiation therapy.
This partnership will underpin The London Clinic’s aims to innovate its technology and digital capabilities, reinforcing the charity’s purpose of advancing healthcare, while ensuring the hospital remains competitive in the private healthcare marketplace.
The two organisations have built a strong relationship over the last five years, with a proven track record of delivery, along with an ability to respond rapidly to a changing and evolving environment. The expectation is that this solid foundation will continue to develop, enabling both organisations to meet their critical long-term objectives.
