DATAARC HELPS YOU
Integrate resources for advanced data warehousing
Make data-driven decisions with intelligent reports
Let’s face it - numbers can be complicated. For hospitals and health systems consisting of multiple departments and resources, operational analysis can be overwhelming when you are viewing an abundance of spreadsheet reports. Due to interoperability, foodservice data analytics has advanced because data can be easily migrated from transactional databases and stored in a centralized repository.
But having all hospital data stored in a giant database isn’t enough; compiling the information through integrated data warehousing resources so that it can be easily interpreted is vital! After all, executives rely on foodservice data analytics in healthcare for financial planning, budgeting, forecasting, and determining if key performance indicators (KPIs), such as patient satisfaction standards, are being met.

BRIDGING YOUR RESOURCES
Considering foodservice, nutrition, and retail services impact the overall success of a hospital and health system, there is a need to bridge the data from these areas with a healthcare data warehouse. For that reason, Computrition developed DataArc - data warehousing technology for optimized foodservice data analytics.
With an agile three-step process, data analysis is taken to a whole new level! Using Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) technology, DataArc extracts foodservice data from Hospitality Suite systems (FOM, NCM, and SP! POS), and allows you to transform them into visually understandable formats and recurrently load them on a dedicated data warehouse.

ADVANCED REPORTING
Seamless integration with existing Hospitality Suite systems ensures consistency of shared data for ongoing standardization throughout the supply chain.
DataArc enables both single-hospitals and large health systems to use their healthcare data warehouse to generate intelligent dynamic reports and create visualizations. Since foodservice data is desensitized, reports do not contain any protected health information (PHI).
These reports equip foodservice leaders to conduct thorough data analytics of historical trends pertaining to:

MAKING DATA DRIVEN DECISIONS
Having this data visually depicted in the form of graphs and charts makes it easy for executives to identify any problem areas like food-related errors, flaws in the patient experience, food waste issues, and lost sales.
The insights gained from foodservice data analytics help recognize negative operational patterns. This capability drives corrective action, leading to enhanced future best practices like:
