BCN Group has continued its expansion strategy into the healthcare sector, with the acquisition of application and analytics business Public View, following last year’s purchase of analytics, data and automation specialist Cloud2.
Public View is at the forefront of providing performance monitoring and benchmarking services to the UK NHS, underpinned by Microsoft, .Net and Azure. Public View promptly collates data from hundreds of public data sources automatically and combines them into a single intuitive portal for NHS leaders.
Public View subscribers can instantly identify areas that are high performing, progressing well, or a cause for concern.
The Cloud2 acquisition last year accelerated BCN’s offering into the healthcare sector with Microsoft Power Platform and Azure Data services, to deliver real time data visualisation, automate business processes and create unique sector specific intellectual property to solve real operational challenges.
Public View strengthens these existing services to create a powerful portfolio of analytics, reporting and benchmarking services to the healthcare sector. BCN says it has been quick to identify similar needs in other sectors, and is already transferring this capability to benefit other organisations in housing associations and financial services.
Rob Davies (pictured), CEO of BCN Group, said: “The acquisition of Public View allows us to provide existing and new clients with a complete and comprehensive suite of cloud-based analytics services delivered by skilled and experienced experts. It not only complements and strengthens our existing market position offering, but takes our combined capability to the next level and further establishes BCN as a key service provider across the public sector and healthcare arena.”
