Avoca’s track record in data migration is second to none.  As business partner to both Fujitsu and BT, Avoca have been involved in all of the acute migrations that have taken place in both London & Southern Clusters as well as many of the RiO migrations.  With our strong health informatics background and extensive ‘hands on’ experience, Avoca have devised a tool set and approach to data migration that makes us the recognised market leader in this field.  Avoca’s approach is both comprehensive and flexible allowing us to tailor a consultancy and tools service to meet your project needs.

If you are changing a key system, whether this is inside the national programme or otherwise, data migration will be a significant issue and is almost certain to end up on the critical path.  When it goes well, it is a non-event, but it can so easily cause delays, budget over-run, and introduce clinical risk, that the experienced programme manager knows the importance of an experienced and professional approach to this data migration.

Whatever your level of experience in this field, and no matter what stage your project is at, Avoca’s staff will be able to assist you in ensuring the best possible migration.
