TekPlus Vendor Analysis is our series of Profiles Reports on the Vendors. The Profiles include our Tek-Outlook, SWOT analysis and a detailed profile of the company with a focus on HIS. Siemens Medical Solutions is positioned very nicely, thank you! The company has made an early move towards integrated HIS with its Soarian solutions and is already creating the right partnerships and eco-systems. The group needs to fortify its strong base in Europe and build deeper relationships in the states. Increasingly looking at newer markets will open greater opportunities but the company will have to add strong local partners. Siemens Medical urgently needs to plan and articulate its vision as integration extends towards primary healthcare. Its major rivals have increased their focus and are developing strategies for end-to-end integrated Healthcare. (iHCS as TekPlus calls it). If Siemens Medical can lead this vision, the group would move towards an extremely solid position globally. Note: TekPlus Points state the current opinion of the vendor as viewed by TekPlus. TekPlus experts take a number of parameters into account when analysing a vendor and its position in the competitive landscape going forward. The scale of the points are as follows; +3 : Extremely Solid Position, +2 : Solid Position, +1 : Promising Position, 0 : Weak Position and -1 : Very Weak Position. |
