A gap analysis, identifying where evidence gaps exist and utilising ARC expertise to generate the required evidence3. An evidence synthesis, identifying where there is sufficient evidence to scale up deployment of the priority innovations and sharing this information across health and care networks and NHSE/NHSI directorates, to inform strategic planning4. Implementation scale up and evaluation into health and social care settings of innovations which have proven benefit, utilising the AHSNs expertise in spread and adoption.The programme utilises an existing route to procure through a 'call off' Future Licence for Agreed Services (FLAfS) against the AHSN Master Services Agreement (MSA) 2018-2023.
