NHS Shared Business Services

NHS Shared Business Services (NHS SBS) is a joint venture company in the United Kingdom between the Department of Health (DoH) and Sopra Steria. It provides back office services to NHS trusts such as finance, human resources, family health services and procurement.

NHS SBS was formed in 2005 to provide a more efficient method of supplying business services to the National Health Service (NHS). It employs more than 1200 staff and by supplying many trusts it achieves cost savings of 20–40% due to benefits from economies of scale.[1]
