Case Study - NHS Future Focused Finance Planning Platform

Project Overview

The NHS Future Focused Finance Maturity Tool represented a critical transition from an inefficient legacy system to a modern digital solution for healthcare financial planning. Prior to this project, NHS Trusts nationwide struggled with a labyrinthine Excel spreadsheet that created significant operational friction—confusing users, introducing data inconsistencies, and hampering effective financial governance.

I was engaged to completely reimagine this essential planning process. My approach began with a comprehensive deconstruction of the complex spreadsheet logic, identifying core calculations while discarding redundancies and inefficiencies. With this understanding, I designed and built an intuitive web-based platform that transformed the experience for financial managers across the NHS. The resulting solution not only preserved the necessary analytical capabilities but enhanced them with clear user pathways, improved data visualization, and robust governance features—ultimately supporting better financial decision-making within the UK's healthcare system.
