Case Studies
Case #1:
Nationwide Healthcare Provider
Technology Risk Assessment
The Challenge
A large, nationwide integrated healthcare provider serving 12 million members was navigating a period of major enterprise technology change, including large-scale system integration and cloud modernization. Leadership needed clear visibility into technology risk, vendor exposure, and integration readiness to make confident, well-informed investment decisions.
The Approach
As the senior technology leader responsible for this assessment, I evaluated infrastructure readiness, vendor and platform risk, data governance practices, and contract exposure across a technology portfolio spanning 222 enterprise systems and 10 vendor relationships. Over a 1 year engagement as the Director, I led a team of 10 to translate complex technical findings into clear, actionable insight for executive level stakeholders and hospital senior leadership.
The Outcome
Leadership gained a prioritized, board-ready view of technology risk and opportunity — reducing exposure ahead of critical system integrations, avoiding costly rework during a multi-year consolidation effort, and strengthening confidence in the organization's technology roadmap. The result was $7.5M in savings.
The Business Impact
Evaluating infrastructure, systems, vendor risk, data governance, financial implications, and integration readiness illustrates how The Holsey Group would approach technology due diligence, AI governance, and enterprise program leadership for healthcare clients.
Case study reflects enterprise technology leadership experience including role held as an internal leader.
