Background and Issues

A leader in occupational health that had to prove its safety

For 40 years, Val Solutions has been developing software used by 12,000 occupational health professionals. Its 600 clients and its investor were seeking formal assurances regarding data security.

HDS certification was also becoming a contractual requirement. However, the project raised concerns: complexity, cost, and loss of flexibility. It was also necessary to take stock of 40 years’ worth of assets and get the teams on board, all while the company was undergoing a major transformation and launching a new product.

We were doing a good job, but we weren't documenting it. What this certification gives us is proof of what we do.
