Health Informatics Benchmarking Club (HiBC)

Following proposals by a wide range of key influencers, the NHS Connecting for Health Capacity and Capability programme (now Department of Health Informatics Directorate) undertook to develop and pilot a Health Informatics Service Benchmarking and Accreditation Scheme. This is to help Health Informatics providers quality assure and develop services that they know are fit for purpose, both now and in the future.

The aim of this work is to provide a national framework for the benchmarking and accreditation of  NHS Health Informatics providers. It includes developing a set of indicators of quality and metrics that will be relevant to managed or shared services, single site services and any other types of service.

This project forms the basis of a longer-term approach to HIS benchmarking and accreditation and will include identifying tools and resources to support the development of fit-for-purpose services. It will also seek agreement on whether a benchmarking and/or accreditation scheme best meets service and customer needs.

Compass Costs Consultants Limited invited Ten Men Design to breathe new life into their national advertising campaign, which showcased late 2009 and earlier in 2010, in the Law Society Gazette www.lawgazette.co.uk – the leading legal weekly.

This successful campaign took on a life of it’s own with the introduction of the clever new strap line “The Wonderful Wizards of Costs” and development of the magical atmospheric theme.  As a result the new style presented itself in various guises from the current National Advertising Campaign, two stunning 3×3 and a 3×2 Exhibition Plex Systems (pictured), a Limited Edition presentation Compass Costs Spell Book and 25 Inserts with everything you need to know in Costs Recovery world, Press releases, magic wands, USB cards, style inspiration for the company new website: www.compasscosts.com and not forgetting the promotional soft-toy owls!!

As a rapidly expanding, modern and vibrant business that boasts Fellows and Associate Members of the Association of Law Costs Draftsmen (ALCD), in addition to over 40 fee earners, who individually have been involved in some of the largest most ground breaking pieces of litigation in recent times, a strong national campaign is key to the continued growth.

Phil Hodgkinson, Managing Director said,

“As the largest independent legal services provider in the UK, our advertising and marketing campaigns have to be innovative, professional and most of all unforgettable. Tim at Ten Men Design made the effort to quickly understand our business, researched what we did and came up with a concept for our latest nationwide marketing campaign, then provided a range of stunning adverts which we are rolling out across the UK to coincide with our annual national exhibition tour.  I cannot advocate the service highly enough on paper; thoroughly professional, the highest quality, speedy and efficient.

Tim Ingram and Ten Men Design are now my firms design company of choice.”

BRIEF:  RED STAR ‘THE VAULTS’ CD SLEEVE & BAND PHOTOGRAPHY

Red Star performs a high-energy mix of original material of Indie, classic and hard rock. This 5 piece Yorkshire band formed in and around Huddersfield, early 2004. They are continuously developing a strong following of all ages. They are arguably the most dynamic and energetic live act coming out of the North of England today, switching easily between driving rock and more chilled numbers.

Thunderous drums, Funked up Synth sounds, genius “Lead” Bass and razor sharp, screaming guitars all lay the foundations for Bloy’s dark, suggestive and controversial lyrics, with his vocal delivery and antics on stage that are becoming legendary. RED STAR is the band that will define a generation!

(Sheffield Student magazine, jan 2008)

“The lads from ‘RED STAR’ definitely have a big future with influences ranging from Oasis, The Stones Roses and a twist of Kasabian, they ARE the band to rejuvenate indie rock. In ‘Northerners In London Town’, they may well have a modern classic”.

(BBC Radio Manchester oct 2007)
“Redstar sent shivers down the spines of the scene kids, then made them re-assess there attire”.
