Lawson Software (Nasdaq:LWSN) today introduced Lawson Analytics
for Healthcare, a new analytic solution that will offer healthcare
organizations a simple way to connect staffing, clinical and
financial information for better decision making. Lawson Analytics
for Healthcare is designed to help deliver the benefits of a major
business intelligence project at a fraction of the cost and time.
It is scheduled to be generally available in May 2011 and will
provide timely metrics from across the organization to help
healthcare organizations measure, improve and monitor their
financial performance. Lawson introduced the new offering during
the 2011 Lawson Conference and User Exchange (CUE) that opened
today in Boston.
Built by healthcare experts for healthcare organizations, Lawson
Analytics for Healthcare helps simplify access to the right
information at the right time across an organization. It extracts
data from Lawson applications, including supply chain, staffing and
financial data, as well as data from non-Lawson systems. This
creates a rapid connection within a healthcare organization’s
operations allowing staff to stop searching for data and start
analyzing it. It also provides greater confidence in business
decisions.
Lawson Analytics for Healthcare also helps simplify the software
user’s experience by presenting data in a highly intuitive view,
with the most relevant information and action items in a clear
view. “We worked closely with our healthcare customers to better
understand the data that is most important to them and to
understand precisely how they use the information,” said Bob
Ainsbury, vice president of industry strategy for Lawson
Healthcare. “By delivering relevant data, we can help our customers
improve their business performance and operating margin on a
sustained basis by helping them target cost reduction initiatives
and improve business processes.”
Catholic Health East is one of the first Lawson customers to use
the Analytics solution. Catholic Health East (CHE) is a
multi-institution Catholic health system serving patients from
Florida to Maine and employs approximately 54,000 people. The
health system used Lawson Analytics for Healthcare to focus on
finance and supply chain activities.
“Prior to using Lawson Analytics for Healthcare, we had limited
access to metrics to help us assess vendors, giving us a limited
picture of vendor performance,” said Florence Doyle, vice president
of supply chain for CHE. “Vendor performance is based on many key
metrics, including on-time delivery, complete and accurate orders,
and accurate shipping, which is what we refer to as the ‘Perfect
Order.’ We now have a tool that allows us to monitor a wide range
of vendor perfect order metrics, follow data trends over time, and
compare vendor performance by each CHE facility and region. This
will help us partner with our vendors to improve performance and
reduce costs over time.”
“Healthcare organizations need easy access to the most important
business data to make better, faster decisions,” said Jim Catalino,
general manager for Lawson Healthcare. “By creating Lawson
Analytics for Healthcare, we can help simplify this highly complex
task. Ultimately this helps our customers reduce costs, improve
efficiency and enhance patient care.”
Lawson Healthcare is the information technology partner that
helps manage and connect the clinical, financial and operational
information that allows providers to concentrate on their mission
of delivering the best patient care possible. Lawson Healthcare has
the combination of software, people and industry know-how to help
improve the business of healthcare.
