Aim & scope of the Vendor Forum
•
•
•
•
•
For professional standards to be widely adopted, they
need to be implemented in information systems.
PRSB is a care professionals’ body not a technical body.
BCS Health and techUK can offer professional and trade
association views, but more is needed.
There is currently a wide chasm between published
professional standards and anything that can be
meaningfully asserted to be compliant.
We need to reach a level of dialogue between PRSB and
implementers that supports agile development.

PRSB conformance questions
•
•
•
•
•
What does “conformance” mean for implementing
professional standards in IT systems?
How do you bridge the gap between generic standards
and testable implementations?
What capabilities would PRSB need to support the level
of dialogue needed for agile implementation?
Is a certification scheme viable? (even if it follows techUK
recommendations)
Can a Vendor Forum lead to a consensus on
implementation guidance or at least agreeing what the
issues are?
Workshop breakout questions (1)
• What can industry get from PRSB? What can industry give
to PRSB?
• How should the financial model work for industry
participation in PRSB? Is it practical to differentiate
multinationals and large corporates from SMEs and sole
traders?
• How can vendors advise PRSB about implementation
requirements? How can PRSB respond to implementation
queries and issues?
Workshop breakout questions (2)
• What does “conformance” to the standards mean? (e.g.
AoMRC headings)
• What are the barriers to adopting professional standards in
IT systems?
• What educational needs exist to enable professional
standards implementation?
• How frequently should the vendor forum interact with PRSB
and in what form (virtual/physical)?

•
•
•
Volunteers for group for methodology (development,
implementation, criteria for technical assurance – open
and transparent).
Different vendor types have different needs/contributions.
Need both grand plan and incremental use cases: prioritise
clinically important content.
PRSB marketing – demonstrate value to vendors to justify
participation.
NHS Trust engagement via CCIO network.
Converge with GPSoC.
