About

NHS South West - Acutes awarded a contract to Synbiotix Solutions Ltd for an electronic patient food ordering and ward catering top-ups system.

The system replaces a manual process where housekeepers and nurses record patient meal orders on forms that are faxed to Facilities Admin for input and passed to catering for pick and pack.

The electronic system aims to provide a consistent approach across the Trust for ordering approximately 921 patient meals per day, managing ward and catering stock, reducing food wastage, and enabling reporting.

Key features include Wi-Fi compatibility with the Trust's systems and Internet Explorer V11, support for handheld devices such as Surface Pro or Apple tablets, itemised food invoicing per ward, and automated portion 'best fit' to support waste reduction.

The contract term is five years, with a value of AUD 73,280.
