Servelec

Servelec is a health informatics company based in Victoria Quays in Sheffield. It supplies software to the healthcare, social care and education sectors.[1]

The company comprises:

  • Servelec Health and Social Care (known for: EPR, PAS, RiO, Oceano, Flow;),
  • Servelec Technologies (SCADA)
  • Servelec Controls (Mission critical)

Revenue for 2016 was £61.0 million, compared with £63.1 million in 2015. The operating profit was £14.6 million, compared with £16.2 million in 2015.[2]

Ownership

In 2013 the company was floated on the stock exchange by CSE Global which had owned it since 2000 with an expected valuation of £122 million. At that time it was concentrated on software and control systems to utilities, broadcasters, lighthouses and North Sea oil rigs.[3] It was then listed on the FTSE SmallCap Index. In November 2017 Montagu Private Equity bought the Group for £223.9 million.[4]

Healthcare

RiO is said to be a seamless electronic patient record that is largely immutable, which is accessible through smartphones and tablets. This enables practitioners to access patient records remotely and in real-time.[5]

Bournewood Community and Mental Health trust deployed a Servelec system in only 8 months in 1999 - considerably quicker than was common.[6]

University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust developed a new patient administration system, OceanoPAS, in a four year partnership with the company, bringing in more than 1 million patient records, 1.8 million outpatient appointments, 248,000 inpatient movements and 3,836 clinics. It went live in August 2017 and was functional with real time clinic reporting from day one. The trust’s director of strategic operations, said the roll-out was “a phenomenal achievement”. It was then made available commercially to other organisations.[7]

St Patrick’s Mental Health Services installed the first mental health Electronic Health Record in Ireland, using the company's eSwift EHR in September 2017. It integrates inpatient, outpatient and day patient services. It plans to incorporate an online portal allowing service users to view parts of their own health record. [8]

Lancashire Care NHS Foundation Trust deployed a new Servelec RiO electronic patient record in March 2018.[9]

Microtest Health's Open Evolution system is integrated with Servelec's RiO electronic patient record, which is widely used within mental health, community health and child health care settings. It plans further integration with their social care case management system, Mosaic.[10] It also integrates with Totalmobile's mobile-based workforce software so staff can save time by accessing patient information from the electronic patient record using a smartphone or tablet.[11]

Control and safety systems

Servelec Controls has been selected as a key software developer of the safety software for the control systems, personnel safety systems and machine protection systems of the European Spallation Source.[12]
