About Richard Cramer

As Chief Strategist I bridge the business and clinical transformations that are reinventing the healthcare and life sciences industries. I translate data-related business needs into solutions that work by developing a guiding vision, building consensus to support the vision, and collaborating to make the vision a reality. Using my wide breadth of knowledge in technology delivery and vertical expertise and marketing, my clients find solutions that meet their needs and work in tandem with other technologies while reducing risks and costs. During my time in the industry, I’ve enjoyed working in a role that requires both business acumen and technical competence; this allows me to have meaningful discussions with clinical and business leaders around how data and analytics can be a catalyst for reimagining healthcare and life sciences, while also important topics around data-related issues with healthcare and life sciences senior IT professionals and executives. My role also furthers my own commitment to constantly learning and sharing of expertise in the areas of analytics, analytics architectures, data governance, and enterprise data warehouse best practices to ensure enterprises are performing optimally. I’ve spent the last 25 years building my expertise by doing the challenging work of gaining insights from data in the complex, highly fragmented, environments with many competing priorities that are a reality for our customers. Now, I excel at simplifying and communicating complex topics to exec and technical audiences for purposeful and meaningful collaboration.
