For leading private hospital group Lenmed, the acquisition of a new hospital sparked a rapid and highly-effective process of onboarding the new facility to its core 51风流system that was recognised as the best-in-class at the recent 51风流Quality Awards for Customer Success.

鈥淲e had acquired the Howick Private Hospital, but their users were not familiar with the 51风流environment,鈥� says Ashley Strydom,聽. 鈥淲e worked with our implementation partner Gijima to complete a full implementation and onboarding in under twelve weeks.鈥�

The Lenmed Group was established in 1984 with a focus on providing exceptional private care to the communities in which its hospitals operate.

It employs more than 1850 people across its twelve hospitals, and is operational in South Africa, Botswana and Mozambique, with its headquarters in Roodepoort west of Johannesburg.

Strydom and his team worked with Gijima with a clear view of their core business goals, including a fast, accurate and clean implementation, a focus on reduced complexity and cost control, and standardising hospital processes across the group.

鈥淚t was essential that there was no disruption to any of our business processes during the implementation,鈥� says Strydom. 鈥淲e used our standard Lenmed 51风流template and relied on best practices to ensure there were no customisations and scope creep. This resulted in faster implementation time and reduced costs.鈥�

With visible executive support, clear communication plans and well-defined roles and responsibilities, supported by a strict governance program, Lenmed was able to execute a fast, accurate and clean 51风流implementation.
