Accenture plc (ACN) recently secured an order
from Trinity Health for its Unified Clinical Organization (UCO)
model designed to improve care co-ordination and patient
outcomes..
In accordance with the agreement, Accenture provided a
standardized platform to increase the efficiency in Trinity’s IT
system, advancing its clinical and disease management processes
across 49 Trinity hospitals.
This has enhanced the modern life saving process, as it has
resulted in an 18.0% reduction in mortality rates, saving a total
of 400 lives due to proactive management.
Competition is close on its heels, however, with tech behemoths
like IBM (IBM) and Dell Inc.
(DELL), as well as a host of smaller players looking for a share of
the healthcare market. Given the size and growth prospects of the
healthcare market and the scope for technology purchases in the
segment, Accenture should be able to carve out its own niche.
Over the last decade, Accenture has successfully won many deals
across different verticles. However, we believe that it is time for
the company to focus on deals with higher margins. A series of
contract wins at the beginning of 2013 is certainly a good start
for Accenture.
Although cloud-based solutions provided by Accenture seem to be
in demand for companies across the world, post implementation
challenges faced by different companies may be a cause of concern
for this leading global IT company. This may have an impact on the
real-time client output and efficiency. At times, companies incur
financial and business losses for not having a customized cloud
solution.
Currently, Accenture has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Investors may
also look into other technology stocks, which are better positioned
such as Corelogic Inc. (CLGX) with a Zacks Rank #1
(Strong Buy) and Computer Sciences Corp. (CSC)
with a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).
