BCN Group has acquired application and analytics business Public View as part of its cunning plan to push into the health sector
For those not in the know, Public View provides performance monitoring and benchmarking services to the NHS. It is based around Microsoft’s .Net, and Azure Cloud Platform. It collects data from hundreds of public data sources automatically before combining them into a single intuitive portal for NHS leaders.
The acquisition by north-west based BCN follows that of healthcare-focused data analytics and process automation specialist Cloud2 in May last year.
And the gold Microsoft and Dell partner claims the addition of Public View will strengthen its existing services to “create a powerful and market-leading portfolio of analytics, reporting and benchmarking services to the healthcare sector”.
BCN Group Rob Davies CEO 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. “I am delighted to welcome Public View to the BCN family, and to work alongside its incredible team as we seamlessly merge its products, services and processes into the wider BCN Group.”
Public View founder Tom Ridgeway said that the company had achieved great things in 2018.
“I’m incredibly excited by about the acquisition and what it will mean to the Public View clients as we bring the combined capability of the two businesses together to continue to deliver exceptional services and outcomes.”
