KSL offers commissioning and project support through directors and associates
Our team is led by Kevin Skinner, managing director of KSL. His most recent Patient Politics article, for the NHS Alliance on joint working between GP Consortia and Local Authorities, can be downloaded here.
Kevin can put together a bespoke team of associates to support him for particular projects, directly as KSL or through selected agencies on PASA/Catalist frameworks.
Kevin and associates bring a wealth of specialist knowledge and experience in public service commissioning in the NHS and local government. We provide consulting and interim management support directly or through selected agencies; our services can be accessed through frameworks to make resourcing and procurement simple when needed.

- Joint and integrated commissioning in NHS and council services
