LiveData PeriOp Manager is the company’s operational intelligence solution for healthcare. It synchronizes workflow throughout the entire perioperative suite to create an optimal care environment for staff and patients alike. Coordinating patient flow, patient care, and related resources from preoperative assessment to discharge in real-time, PeriOp Manager streamlines OR throughput and promotes full compliance with CMS, The Joint Commission, and other critical patient safety mandates. 

LiveData Real-Time Integration (RTI) performs real-time machine to machine (M2M) data integration for systems that run the electric power grid. By integrating data from diverse sensors, devices, and systems, LiveData RTI delivers one global, real-time system view of the next-generation electric utility services network and enables operational management to rapidly respond to incidents or outages.
