Our consultancy is informed by industry experience, providing our team with a unique understanding of sector-specific challenges.
Founded in 2011 as Zircadian, KBC (Kendall Bluck Consulting) was originally formed to take-over delivering the rostering function originally provided (to over 150 hospitals) by Rotaworks.
As Zircadian, we delivered rota design, reviews and contract advice to trusts, but this quickly developed into system reviews and wider clinical projects and, on the acquisition of Zircadian by Allocate, we became KBC.
It is our mission to create best-practice workforce alignment strategies, facilitating the most cost-effective way to staff clinical services.
Our focus is on delivering affordable bespoke reviews for clients, bringing our expertise to organisations who wish to improve workforce efficiency whilst enhancing patient care, education, training, and the work-life balance of staff.
We apply this ambition to all our projects, providing clinically-led affordable consultancy to the NHS and beyond.
Our workforce consultants, senior clinicians and analysts have over 100 years NHS experience, providing KBC with a unique understanding of industry and organisation nuances. This is of huge benefit to our clients.
Our reviews typically identify upwards of £4million efficiencies.
The result is the identification of right-sized clinical workforces, enhanced rota proficiency, improved workforce productivity and a reduction on the reliance of locum staff and the associated expenses.
