"The Trust undertook a comprehensive evaluation process as we do with all projects, and it was quickly evident that Dakota understood the challenges we faced as an organisation. Dakota impressed me with their knowledge, integration expertise and flexible approach, proposing a credible printing solution which meant that Great Ormond Street rolled out a system that was NPSA compliant, yet easy for staff to operate. I would have no hesitation in recommending Dakota to other Trusts looking to deploy print solutions integrating with their existing hospital systems."
