Last week, we highlighted a return to growth for Sopra Steria’s UK business, as it turned around a 3.4% decline in H118 to a 3.5% organic growth in Q3 – see Sopra Steria Q3: The journey continues. Growth was largely put down to the business’ joint ventures: NHS Shared Business Services (NHS SBS) and Shared Services Connect Limited (SSCL, with the Cabinet Office). By contrast, the H118 decline was also put down to SSCL – but in that case, it was the impact of one-off transformation revenue in 2017 not repeating in 2018, dragging down the numbers.
NHS SBS and SSCL have a large sway when it comes to the UK’s performance, as they account for around a third of the region’s turnover.
We recently caught up with John Neilson. He has a triumvirate of hats! - Sopra Steria’s Deputy CE; SSCL CEO and NHS SBS CEO. Our conversation centred on the performance of the joint ventures. In this latest UKHotViews Extra we analyse their progress and likely future and consider the impact on the performance of Sopra Steria UK.
