The Alliance, a not-for-profit organization led by a group of renown Health IT Leaders with extensive impact (HIMSS, CHIME) on the current health IT landscape, helps healthcare technology companies understand markets, validate strategy, benchmark performance, and accelerate transformation through independent research, thought leadership, maturity models, and benchmarking programs.
Custom healthcare IT studies help clients understand markets, customers, competitors, and emerging opportunities. The Alliance designs the research, recruits the right audiences, analyzes the results, and translates findings into executive-level implications.
Healthcare organizations often pursue transformation without a common language for defining capabilities, measuring current state, or identifying the next practical step. A vendor-neutral maturation model creates a shared framework that makes progress visible and priorities actionable. We design statistically validated, domain-specific healthcare maturity models that measure and advance organizational capabilities.
The Alliance turns proprietary findings into evidence-based stories that elevate market visibility, differentiate the client’s point of view, and create useful reasons to engage buyers throughout the sales cycle.
Through our partnership with Healthcare IT Today, our research reaches 200,000+ executives and tech leaders.
