The Lawson applications, which will replace Triad’s legacy business systems, will support the hospital’s IT transformation by enabling it to standardize and automate business processes across its existing hospital network. This centralized business system has also been designed to provide a common platform for newly acquired facilities, streamlining the business integration process for new hospitals that join the Triad system in the future.

Our corporate strategy focuses on working collaboratively with our various constituents and creating a competitive advantage through external growth with minimal impact on operational costs, said Michael O’Rourke, vice president and chief information officer for Triad.

Consolidating IT and executing a world-class IT plan will give us a strong foundation to support this strategy. We chose Lawson’s ERP applications based on its industry expertise and proven track record of helping other hospitals achieve their business objectives.
