Program/Project Management

AVANT’s program/project management consulting process is designed to help the C-suite overcome the obstacles between vision and reality. Our disciplined, yet flexible approach ensures a good fit with clients’ work style and culture while ensuring effective execution.

Strategic Planning
 
Developing and implementing a sound strategic plan is essential for an organization’s long-term success. AVANT brings unmatched industry experience, rigorous analytical capabilities, and pragmatic business mindsets to provide sustainable strategic planning solutions.

• Implementing organizational readiness assessments
• Identifying and resolving potential barriers that can derail strategic planning efforts

Health Care M&A

AVANT’s managing partners have built a foundation of health care transaction success and continuous improvement tailored to clients’ objectives, and have developed a trusted process that ensures a successful closing. AVANT achieves this by maximizing competition via a highly coordinated and synchronized campaign, while maintaining confidentiality and minimal disruption to daily health care business operations. 

• Due diligence 
• Managing the sale process to maintain confidentiality
• Presenting health care entity(s) factually while highlighting strengths and opportunities
• Anticipating key transition issues and positioning accordingly
• Educating our clients about the deal dynamics to maximize value and mitigate risks thereby achieving the best possible outcome

 
Technology Innovation

Technology infrastructure is the backbone of integrated health care. Data feeds intended to foster interoperability are available from a myriad of vendors, from healthcare information exchanges (HIE’s such as Arizona Current and Michigan Health Information Network) to commercial vendors and payers. In most cases exchange participants must “give to get” data, and determining how to best ingest, operationalize and return data is a major strategic decision for entities of all sizes. Proper selection, implementation, and customization of health information technology (HIT) systems is a key component of effective care delivery.

• Evaluating current technology platforms and utilization
• Vendor and platform selection assistance for technology transitions
• Mobile and virtual workforce readiness assessments, pilot projects and scale-up assistance
• Representation and strategy during negotiations with exchanges, payers and peers
