CUI Solution Enablers

There has been rapid uptake in use of SharePoint by NHS Trusts, however it was recognised that a large proportion of the trusts have similar needs and that it would be cost effective to develop solutions to these needs centrally and make them available to all trusts rather than have each one create their own. To this end Microsoft and CfH created the Common User Interface programme.

Over a series of releases it has developed guidance, solution enablers, information and standards for the NHS to use. A number of the Solution Enablers are components specific to SharePoint 2007 (and Office 2007) that are designed for the NHS to solve specific management challenges. They are intended to be fast to deploy and use technologies already available to the NHS. And they are free, the only thing you pay for is our implementation and training effort.

Cloud2 has worked closely with the CUI team and are the first partner to help trusts implement CUI components. We have been Microsoft Trained (and were the first at this too). We have supported a number of early adopter trusts in rolling out their solution enablers.
We can demonstrate the full range of Enablers and provide a rapid implementation of any of the components as a standalone activity or fully integrated into our Solution Accelerator.

Ask us for details, fact sheets etc. of any of the components,  or visit the NHS Resource Centre http://www.microsoft.com/uk/nhs.

Note: the CUI Enablers are not supported by SharePoint 2010, however we can emulate any functions using SharePoint 2010 if required
