IBM brings the whole end to end play together , starting from strategy and organizational consulting to integration and implementation.

Knowledge Management in the Public Sector

Many public sector entities across the globe are becoming increasingly aware of the business value inherent in their tacit and explicit knowledge and have taken major steps to leverage their knowledge for the benefit of their governments and their constituents. Typical examples of this include leveraging the knowledge already within the organisation to generate value add services to the public or to improve administrative efficiencies.

Government 2020 and the Perpetual Collaboration Mandate

Six inescapable forces are simultaneously now underway, over which governments and societies have limited control. Because of their virulent and simultaneous nature, they are described as drivers. Unquestionably governments must respond in a more comprehensive manner than ever before. In developing tailored responses, a new dimension of greatly enhanced collaboration is the ultimate capability governments need, as it will form the foundation of strategies necessary for coping with these drivers. More connectedness and cooperation is needed than ever before: across agencies, across societies, across governments, and with more constituencies

Shared Services in Public Sector

Governments around the world are poised to benefit from adoption of a shared services business framework provided that lessons learned from the commercial sector are applied. Shared services frameworks bring together functions that are common to multiple business units under a single delivery organization. The result: increased efficiency and quality of service and decreased cost.

IBM Patient Centric Healthcare

Patient-centric healthcare is an emerging model in healthcare that optimizes the healthcare system to focus on the patient experience and outcomes for better health and well-being. While this model is made possible by advancements in technology, it is also driven by market forces and societal desire to improve the health of a nation’s citizens, while reducing healthcare costs.
Patients are empowered through better access to information and a focus on prevention.
Payers and others involved in the administration of healthcare can reduce costs through efficient use of technology.
Providers can improve the quality and safety of clinical care through the use of technology-based tools such as electronic medical records, information-based medicine, integrated information management systems, and better analytic and diagnostic tools.

IBM provides business transformation and infrastructure services along with industry-specific solutions in three broad categories:

Clinical and business optimization adopting Our Prolink Methodology: Prolink4™ is a process-centric approach to guiding an organization through the transition from today’s current state to a new future state based on an organization’s overall goals and objectives. It is a structured, focused, replicable approach that streamlines process redesign and implementation of a technology solution. It places a major emphasis on engaging the right people to make the right decisions at the right time. Prolink4™ integrates our knowledge base of process maps and vendor workflows, business and design decisions, and industry citations of successful practices and potential benefits.
Public and private healthcare organizations around the world are leveraging IBM’s industry expertise and advanced technologies to deliver more efficient service in every aspect–from hospital admissions to the point of care, from billing to insurance reimbursement. This increased efficiency is resulting in better-managed healthcare costs.

Adopting the best EMR or EHR: IBM views all information technology in the context of its full life-cycle; from planning, through selection and implementation, and ultimately its planned replacement. Just the process of acquiring information technology can be time consuming and costly. A typical system selection requires an organization to define its requirements, identify a preferred vendor (or vendors,) select a product, validate that the product meets its needs, and acquire the product through a formal contract or agreement. IBM’s Prolink4 System Selection Methodology is unique. It utilizes a process-based approach to define both the client’s requirements and its outcomes expectations in the context of its culture and business goals.

Building eHealthcare Networks: IBM recognizes the growing trends driving eHealthcare networks within the global healthcare industry with the vision to provide anytime, anywhere access to accurate, secure information needed for user’s and the ability to effectively explore and use the information. Industry trends include:
IBM’s team of clinical and information system professionals have a proven record of guiding organizations through strategic planning and technology
