What it does: The company provides information technology consulting to healthcare organizations that are implementing IT systems or upgrading existing ones.
How it grew to become one of healthcare's hottest: ESD has experienced compounded annual growth of nearly 53% during the past five years. The company attributes that to its people—a group of consultants and team members who manage the implementation and optimization of IT systems for its healthcare clients.
“We have some of the most committed clinical and technical people in the industry,” Chief Operating Officer Kelly Mulligan said in a statement. And the firm makes ongoing investments in its staff to maintain the quality of the client-customer relationship.
One employee enhancement was rolled out in 2011 as part of ESD's rebranding campaign. The company's new website features an employee portal that offers its consultants online resources, updates and educational tools to help serve their clients.
