The Decision Intelligence Engine for the NHS.
Healthcare systems should be built around the people they serve, not the institutions that run them. We build the intelligence to make that real.
What is Decision Intelligence?
Every NHS trust has dashboards. Very few have one version of the truth. Decision Intelligence is the discipline that connects clinical evidence, workforce reality, and financial risk into a single picture. So leaders can make confident decisions that improve outcomes for their populations and the systems that serve them.
1. Ask the right questions. Reveal what the data hides.
We triangulate clinical, workforce, and financial data around how consumer needs are actually met. Surfacing what dashboards miss.
Maternity Index · Workforce DI · Population Segmentation · Value Index
2. Design solutions and futures to deliver better outcomes.
Better outcomes with better use of resources. Not more of the same.
Clinical Service Review · CWOS · Maternity Service Transformation
3. One version of the truth. For better governance.
Better decisions. Better boards. Better outcomes. The evidence to govern with confidence.
Board Operating System · HealthBoard Analytics
4. Develop the leaders the NHS needs.
The NHS asks leaders to transform systems they were never trained to lead. Rigorous, science-led programmes for Medical Directors, Boards and CxOs, built by practitioners who have led healthcare organisations.

From boardroom to frontline, the decisions that shape the NHS start here.
We’ve worked across trust boards, integrated care systems, clinical services, and national transformation programmes. These are some of the dilemmas leaders brought to us.
Trust Boards
“We’ve cut everything we can see. The savings we need now are in the places we haven’t looked.”
Hundreds of millions in recoverable value, revealed by starting with people, not spreadsheets.

“Four providers. Four versions of the truth. One population getting the gaps between them.”
Five organisations. One radical shared blueprint. £300m+ in trapped value without additional resources.

“If this service fails, the first question won’t be what went wrong. It will be what I knew and when.”
One version of the truth. Workforce, finance, quality, performance. So the board could act before, not after.

“We’ve written the policy. Published the framework. And nothing has changed on the ground.”
A hospital reimagined as a vehicle for children’s life chances. The model became a national blueprint.
Read the storyTwo questions every board should be able to answer.
Where is the trapped value in your system?
NHS trusts over £1.5bn in operating expenditure consistently underperform smaller trusts on both productivity and outcomes. The question isn’t whether your trust has trapped value. It’s how much, and where.

Find out where your trust standsDo you know your true maternity risk?
Every trust board says patient safety is the priority. But do you know where the real risks are in your maternity services before they become a crisis? The Strasys Maternity Index turns data into foresight, so your board can prevent harm, not just report on it.

“I don’t know anyone who does analytics better than Strasys. They provide a succession of lightbulb moments. The analysis was the first time I saw the lightbulb go on with the board and the executive team.”
James Sumner
CEO, University Hospitals of Liverpool Group
“Our vision needed to be reimagined. Strasys brought extensive industry knowledge and a different mindset. It’s probably been the most intellectually challenging process I’ve been through. It’s transformed my thinking big time.”
John Grinnell
CEO, Alder Hey Children’s NHS Foundation Trust
“Strasys helped us see our workforce challenge completely differently. For the first time, we had the evidence to act with confidence. Not just more data, but a clear decision framework the board could rally behind.”
