About the Client

A prosthetics and orthotics provider operating approximately 40 patient-facing clinics across four states. The organization serves patients through a distributed clinical workforce.

The Challenge

The organization had many clinic addresses, a steady cadence of hires and departures, and equipment that had to be ready when people arrived. Evidence of who had which device, when it moved and when it was erased lived across local records and email.

The Finding

The engagement demonstrates a repeatable physical operation across a distributed clinical footprint. Preparation, delivery, recovery, certified erasure and custody are documented operating practices, not a replacement for the customer's clinical, security or technology decisions.
