“Nothing is more important than staying aligned with our customers\u2019 priorities and the needs of the clinicians who rely on our technology every day,\u201d said PerfectServe CEO Guillaume Castel. \u201cHealthcare organizations are under intense pressure to justify every technology investment, which means success comes down to delivering real, measurable value and making day-to-day work easier for care teams. That\u2019s why \u2018Best in KLAS\u2019 isn\u2019t just an award to us\u2014it\u2019s a signal to customers that our team is obsessed with keeping our promises.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lightning Bolt remains the industry standard for its unique ability to create complete and balanced schedules that satisfy both organizational and individual provider preferences\u2014regardless of complexity. While other automated scheduling solutions tend use a linear problem-solving approach that can lead to significant gaps, Lightning Bolt evaluates the entire universe of possibilities given available parameters and builds the best schedule every time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
