Healthcare & Technology Insights

Selecting the right digital twin software for buildings starts with more than evaluating platforms; it requires a clear strategy tied to operational goals, building systems, and long-term real estate portfolio vision.
Historic underinvestment in technology among many healthcare facilities, coupled with pent-up and still growing demand, has resulted in an accelerated ongoing digital transformation of U.S. health systems.

It may not come as new information to many: The healthcare workforce is experiencing widespread burnout, predominantly among nurses.
