Delaying the move from ESR file drops to governed APIs quietly increases cost, risk, and operational drag across NHS workforce workflows. Here’s what it really costs—and why ending ESR file dependency this year is the smartest move.
NHS ESR data powers multiple organisations, teams, and vendors. Without multi-tenant API architecture, integrations become duplicated, insecure, and hard to govern. Here’s why multi-tenancy is essential—and how to implement it safely for ESR-to-API workflows.
A composite NHS digital leader story about the hidden operational pain of ESR CSV drops—late errors, duplicated feeds, and endless workarounds—and the practical path to modernise with a governed ESR-to-API layer.
ESR CSV drops look simple, but they quietly create silos, late errors, and costly change. Turning ESR exports into governed APIs unlocks speed, consistency, security, and repeatable workflows across NHS workforce systems—without a big-bang rebuild.
