Strasys Board Operating System (SBOS)

Better decisions. Better boards. Better outcomes.

Hybrid delivery For Provider & ICB Boards

The board reality

An NHS board's purpose is to set strategy, steward risk and resources, and hold the executive to account so populations get measurably better outcomes. Yet the gap between purpose and performance is widening: information overload, rear-view metrics, strategies stuck in aspiration, delayed decisions.

The side-effect is process-driven governance rather than delivery. Boards receive data but lack the decision frameworks to act on it. The CQC Well-Led framework assesses exactly this capability, and most boards know they could do better.

What this programme does

It treats the board as a system.

Not a collection of individuals. SBOS changes how your board works on real priorities: strategy, risk, performance, and population impact. The programme integrates into your existing board cycle rather than adding to it.

You use Strasys Board Operating System (SBOS).

Live governance analytics that go far beyond standard Integrated Performance Reports. Your board works with its own data throughout the programme, with insights unavailable from national datasets alone. 12 months of platform access included.

You evidence improvement against Well-Led.

The programme provides a structured framework of leading and lagging indicators, evidencing behaviour change and impact month by month. Not a one-off assessment, but a continuous improvement system aligned to all eight Well-Led themes.

Common questions

How does SBOS align with Well-Led?
Directly supports all eight themes. We provide a structured framework of leading and lagging indicators to evidence behaviour change and impact.
Why not just take the national offer?
National offers help on specific topics. SBOS changes how your board works week to week. It's evidence-led, independent, and built around your real priorities. We integrate into your existing schedule and show tangible value.
We already have national data and an IPR. What's different?
Our analytics provide insights unavailable elsewhere in the NHS. It's the difference between information and actionable intelligence. Standard IPRs tell you what happened. Strasys Board Operating System (SBOS) tells you what to do about it.
How does this fit with our existing board development schedule?
The programme integrates into your current board cycle, replacing rather than adding to existing development time. Board time is precious. We respect that.
