There’s no trade-off between your team's well-being and your bottom line
With better data and faster insights, you can reduce OR team fatigue while increasing surgery volume, improving patient experience and financial performance.
Achieve the Quadruple Aim through
Operational Excellence
By creating an OR environment that makes it easier for teams to carry out their work, you can improve their well being and increase throughput, reduce costs, and enhance patient experience. Our data and insights help you maximize operational excellence to impact all aspects of the Quadruple Aim.
What can we do for you?
Improve staff well-being
Reduce fatigue among medical staff by decreasing high-risk poses, standardizing OR processes, and reducing instrument trays and material complexity.
Increase operational efficiency & throughput
Increase surgeries per day with the same OR team by optimizing workflows, implementing best practices, and utilizing best-in-class healthcare technology.
Optimize OR financial performance
Reduce the total cost of surgery by impacting OPEX and CAPEX usage (e.g., reduce instrument trays and increase OR throughput).
Why our method works
Better Data
We generate rich and accurate data by measuring your OR over a period of 2 days. This gives us a detailed and comprehensive representation of your unique OR environment.
Faster Insights
Within four weeks, we report back with actionable insights and improvement opportunities for your local processes, based on measured best practices in hospitals worldwide.
Digital Twin
We configure a digital twin of your OR operations and simulate the impact of potential improvements to build a business case for achieving operational excellence.
Let's get started
We’ll begin by taking an in-depth look at your OR’s unique needs.
After measuring 2 OR days, receive your first insights report in a matter of weeks
We start with our measurement process generating baseline data & insights and configuring your digital twin.
Recurring measurements and reporting to keep your digital twin up to date
If you’re happy with the first report, we will provide you with insights on a regular basis to drive continuous improvement and report back to your teams and management.

How we’re helping hospitals and surgeons reach their goals
Continuous Operational Excellence Insights
We ensure continuous improvement by providing quarterly insight reports that track operational excellence over time.
Scaling to Parallel ORs
We identify surgical teams and case mixes that would benefit from 2 parallel ORs.
Instrument Usage Evaluation
We show actual instrument usage metrics within the OR in a data and insight report.
Achieve 1 Case Extra Per Day
We uncover strategies for increasing caseload through digital twin efficiency simulations.
Fatigue Reduction
We deliver actionable insights for reducing the surgical team’s physical and mental fatigue with a thorough assessment of OR ergonomics.
Case-Mix Optimization
We design an ideal OR case-mix strategy with a data-informed business plan that takes revenue and margins into account.
Process Standardization
We quantify existing process standardization and deviation among surgeons and show which variances make sense and which don’t.
Technology Impact Assessment
We analyze the impact of healthcare technology in the OR and demonstrate how teams can utilize new technologies to ensure optimal operational excellence.
Eliminating OR process variables allows us to standardize the procedure. We start by improving ergonomics to reduce the mental and physical impact on the team. Doing so ultimately improves the process outcomes and positively impacts quality of care. DEO has been critical in helping us generate the data to get here.

Thanks to DEO's data insights, we have already implemented several improvement ideas in the OR at GZA. Fine-tuning patient appointments and parallel processing are just two examples that have saved us a lot of time and improved workflows.
