Activating a $2B academic medical center
Stanford Health Care, 500P
824,000 square feet, 10,000 daily users. Technology vendor coordination across clinical engineering, IT, construction, legal, and executive leadership. Delivered on schedule.
Firenze works with academic medical centers, health systems, clinical and research laboratories, diagnostic companies, and the technology platforms that serve them on the programs that determine their future.
The practice spans data strategy and monetization, AI integration, facilities technology, capital project delivery, cost recovery, contract forensics, operating governance, and data visualization. The visualization layer lives at the institution or embeds inside partner platforms. Programs run over multiple years, sized to institutional ambition, and engage across IT, engineering, clinical operations, and executive leadership.
Data Strategy
Decades of annotated records, images, and specimens sit in freezers and on servers, carried as cost. Buyers now pay for that material under recurring licenses. Making a system visible is the firm's founding work. Making an archive valuable is the same work, one step on.

The method →Capital Programs
AI now reads what no one has time to read: the contracts, invoices, change orders, and project records of an entire capital program. A ninety day assessment returns findings ranked by recoverable dollars, verified by the institution's own finance team, with the answer to where the time went.
