Whether you’re developing a digital roadmap, launching a new service, or navigating NHS transformation priorities, we provide the insight, structure, and challenge needed to turn ambition into action. Our team brings a deep understanding of the UK health and care system, combined with practical experience delivering successful digital change at local, regional, and national levels.
We help you explore what’s possible — and guide you to what works.
Digital transformation in healthcare isn’t just about technology — it’s about designing systems that are sustainable, scalable, and centred on people. That means navigating complex policy, aligning diverse stakeholders, and making decisions that balance vision with operational reality.
At 6B, we help organisations create strategies that are both ambitious and implementable. We support long-term planning, short-term delivery acceleration, and everything in between. From ICS-level data strategy to go-to-market plans for healthtech startups, we tailor our approach to the context and outcomes that matter most to you.
Our innovation consultancy explores new pathways — from virtual care models and intelligent automation to predictive analytics and patient-generated data — always grounded in the practical requirements of safety, interoperability, and regulatory compliance.
We start by understanding where you are today: your systems, challenges, regulatory environment, and clinical or commercial goals. Through a mix of stakeholder interviews, market research, and service mapping, we build a clear picture of your current position and opportunities for change.
From there, we co-create a strategy or innovation roadmap that reflects your priorities — whether that’s scaling a digital service, meeting NHS England targets, launching a new product, or aligning with interoperability frameworks.
Depending on your needs, we may support:
We don’t just write documents — we provide actionable, supported guidance that integrates with governance processes and supports delivery teams.

With 6B, you move from “what if” to “what next” — faster, smarter, and with greater impact.
We combine strategic thinking with hands-on delivery experience. Our team includes digital health consultants, service designers, clinical advisors, and technologists who’ve led transformation across NHS organisations, ICSs, and digital health companies.
We’ve supported national strategy development, regional data and infrastructure programmes, and vendor innovation journeys — helping our clients scale with confidence and deliver solutions that align with NHS goals for integration, personalisation, and population health.
Our consultancy is grounded in pragmatism. We understand the constraints our clients operate under — from tight timelines and legacy infrastructure to regulatory hurdles and stakeholder complexity — and we work with you to create strategies that are resilient, realistic, and ready to deliver results.
