Supply Chain Coordination Limited is a company registered in England and Wales on 25 July 2017 to manage the new NHS Supply Chain operating model, adopting its current company name on 15 November 2017.[1] It was set up by the Department of Health and Social Care in 2018,[2] and was intended to save £2.4 billion within 4–5 years.[3] Consultants Ernst & Young were reportedly paid up to £20 million to help to establish the company.[4] Running costs for the financial year 2018/19 were £180 million, but costs are predicted to grow to £250 million in 2019/20 and to £260 million in 2020/21. This will be taken from the tariff payments to NHS trusts.[5]
