Boulder, CO (PRWEB) November 2, 2009 -- MD-IT, the nation's leading provider of medical documentation software and service to ambulatory clinics and physician offices, announced today that Absolute Performance will provide full application lifecycle management to deliver the MD-IT Platform to its customers. The MD-IT Platform makes it easy and affordable for the medical community to create, store and share clinical notes in electronic format.

"Information technology in the healthcare industry is undergoing dramatic change right now, and MD-IT has a clear vision of how to support its customers through this change," said Tom Carson, CEO of MD-IT. "Last year it became clear that we could only achieve this goal if we replaced our old technology, so we set an ambitious goal of bringing up a robust, new platform and transferring all of our customers within six months. To complement our own development capabilities, we brought in Absolute Performance for their enterprise-level architectural design and database expertise, and Relevance, Inc. for their rapid cycle application development experience. Absolute Performance played a key role in the project, especially as we began bringing up customers in the new production environment. The whole team did a fantastic job, bringing the project in on time and on budget." Absolute Performance provided the engineering guidance and expertise to meet deployment deadlines during the early stages of application's development. As the MD-IT Platform approached the launch date, Absolute performed rigorous application stress testing by leveraging StressWalk™ integrated with System Shepherd® Monitoring to identify and analyze potential performance issues and optimize the application prior to end-user release. Once successfully tested, Absolute assisted the MD-IT engineering staff in the smooth launch of the application and now provides ongoing 24x7 SLA-based application monitoring and management services for the MD-IT Platform.

"We are excited to be working with MD-IT in support of their application platform. Our SaaS operations expertise combined with MD-IT's medical industry expertise provided a smooth and successful application launch," explained Absolute Performance CEO, Jerry Champlin, "Through the use of our application monitoring technology, we have been able to drive significant cost out of the ongoing operations of the platform and meet crucial deadlines in the process."

The MD-IT Platform is a gateway to the Digital HIway, which allows physicians to share clinical and narrative patient data for meaningful EMR use and a true health information exchange. Combining the benefits of traditional dictation and transcription services with the advantages of electronic medical records, MD-IT provides an extremely valuable service to its clients.
