As the U.S. healthcare industry smolders under the pressure of high cost of care, enterprises are looking at global sourcing of IT to meet margin pressures. At the same time, global technology and consulting firms are also investing heavily in the healthcare sector for growth and market share.
In such a scenario, Damo Consulting Inc. provides a range of advisory services and solutions to enterprises and technology firms to enable their healthcare IT market strategies. The company also disseminates highly focused and context-rich market intelligence for enterprises and technology firms looking to stay on top of healthcare market information and trends. “Constantly assimilating developments in the healthcare IT market, our advisory and research teams combine a deep understanding of the healthcare sector with experience and expertise in technology and global sourcing,” asserts Paddy Padmanabhan, Founder and CEO, Damo Consulting Inc., a Chicago-based management consulting firm focused exclusively on healthcare. With over fifteen years of experience in technology outsourcing and analytics operations in the healthcare sector, Padmanabhan’s stints with top tier firms like Accenture, Wipro, and Cognizant is the core reason behind the company’s strong market awareness and technical competency. Padmanabhan is a known thought leader who speaks regularly at industry events, and his views and opinions are featured regularly in CIO magazine and other leading industry publications.
Damo Consulting discerns a need for effective implementation of growth strategy among healthcare technology providers. The company provides a growth enablement framework that not only caters to current organization needs but also encompasses future needs in emerging areas such as analytics and digital. “Employing digital content marketing, social media strategies, and competitive market intelligence, Damo Consulting has successfully enabled several successful competitive pursuits and growth strategy initiatives,” says Padmanabhan. The company’s DamoDigitalTM and DamoIntelTM platforms offer digital content and market intelligence solutions enabling thought leadership and bringing a high level of visibilityto market development and trends.
