Wed 21 Jul 99 News Release
Mr. Thom Skinner reports
MediSolution and U.K.-based PWA Personnel Systems Limited have entered into
an agreement which will make MediSolution the exclusive distributor of
PWA's human resources systems in the United States health care market. The
agreement will give MediSolution exclusive rights for PWA products in the
health care market throughout North America.
The distribution agreement includes PWA software programs in three core
modules related to personnel management, recruiting and training
activities, and an intranet self-service solution. Each core module exists
as a stand-alone solution or as part of a fully-integrated, Y2K compliant,
HR solution. In addition to marketing PWA software, MediSolution will
provide installation, consulting, support and training services to
customers.
In early 1998, MediSolution acquired distribution rights for the Canadian
health care market for PWA's HR systems. These products are currently
distributed by MediSolution under the MediHR brand. Initial market response
to this enhanced product has been highly positive, as evidenced by the
recent selection of MediSolution as preferred vendor for a full-function
human resource management system (HRMS) by a prominent group of
Toronto-area hospitals. MediSolution plans to build on this positive
experience in the Canadian market by taking MediHR and other products to
the U.S. health care market.
In announcing the agreement, MediSolution president and chief executive
officer Remi St-Hilaire said: "We are pleased to partner with PWA who are
recognized as a leader in the HR software market throughout the world.
PWA's HR management software will enable us to establish a premium offering
in the growing U.S. health care market."
"MediSolution is the largest Canadian health care IT solution provider and
we are confident that PWA products, complemented by MediSolution's
best-in-class product portfolio, development, training and support
expertise, will represent a significant entry opportunity into the U.S.
market," said Paul Wallace, PWA president and chief executive officer.
MediHR is a new generation of human resource software designed by HR
professionals and tailored for the health care market. Developed by PWA,
this product is installed in over 1,400 sites worldwide. It enables
MediSolution to provide a fully-integrated human resource, staff scheduling
and payroll solution. A Windows user interface and client/server approach,
using Microsoft's new SQL Server database, enhances ease of use.
PWA Personnel Systems Limited of the United Kingdom develops, markets and
supports a complete range of human resource software solutions. Over 1,400
organizations worldwide use PWA software, including both private sector
companies and public sector organizations. Internationally, PWA's products
are marketed and supported throughout a network of distributors.
