Shaping the Digital Transformation of Healthcare

We worked in close collaboration, in a highly integrated and agile working mode, with the client's teams and other partners, such as Microsoft. Collaborating with the client' business owners on defining the concept, and the innovation development program and relevant associated projects for the development and implementation of a cloud platform and its related components and applications. This included a cross-functional team project set-up using agile methodologies and practices such as SAFe adhering to strict regulations for software development processes defined in the MedTech industry.

Our tech experts collaborated with ZEISS Meditec’ team in the evaluation and selection of the technologies and the cloud computing platform Microsoft Azure as well as respective definition of the cloud architecture.

Our cybersecurity experts provided consultation on cybersecurity and secure product development processes. Together with ZEISS Meditec's cybersecurity team we applied their cybersecurity and data privacy governance program processes and requirements, from creation of a secure architecture through to development.

We consulted on interoperability and medical data standards. Working closely together with the client's team in applying these medical data standards in the creation of the cloud data platform solution that integrates and manages large amounts of data from ZEISS and 3rd party devices and from EMR systems using interoperability standards, such as DICOM and FHIR, for data exchange.

Our team collaborated with ZEISS Meditec in the development of a data exchange solution that integrates ZEISS and third-party medical device data (including data from imaging and surgical systems) with the health data platform. Additionally, we worked with the ZEISS Meditec’s team on designing, developing and testing value-adding digital applications, such as ZEISS Collaborative Care. These applications were built integrating data provided by the health data platform as part of the program.

• We provided comprehensive quality assurance services that adhere to the client's Quality Management processes providing verification documentation according to their Quality Management System (QMS). This support encompassed the development of test strategies, test automation frameworks, and ongoing testing for relevant software. 
• We created a custom software solution to automate the documentation for the Software Test Procedure, Test Summary and Test Report for the developed software for the client's health data platform. Testing activities were conducted across various software products and components in conjunction with other systems and medical devices at the ZEISS Digital Innovation Test Center. This allowed us to test the data synchronization between the data generated by the medical devices and the cloud platform.

Our team provided consultancy and 3rd level support for the operation of the cloud for the client's health data platform. Specifically we advised on the design and implementation of operations and support processes for Azure Cloud operations. We managed the cloud deployments on behalf of ZEISS Meditec, offering ITIL-based service management and 3rd level support through operations and support teams located in Germany, Hungary, and India.
