Nashville General Hospital, a leading provider of healthcare to Nashville and Davidson counties in Tennessee for over 115 years, announced today a partnership with Oakwood Systems Group to complete an upgrade of the Hospital’s data center environment. The data center upgrade will involve two projects running concurrently due to operational dependencies: a complete data center move to an off-site location and separation of Nashville General Hospital’s infrastructure from that of Metro Nashville Government’s.
Oakwood’s Nashville-based team brings over 25 years of healthcare industry expertise to Nashville General Hospital’s project, along with an award-winning project management team and industry certified systems engineers. The partnership with Oakwood provides an expertly managed, professionally executed and cost effective solution for Nashville General Hospital, who was initially looking at costs exceeding $1 million to complete the project in-house.
Nashville General Hospital is one of the Nashville area’s leading healthcare institutions. The institution’s stated vision is to provide excellent healthcare regardless of age, race, creed, gender, or sexual preference. The hospital’s goal is one hundred percent access to healthcare and zero disparity between populations. Completion of this project significantly reduces the costs associated with maintaining the hospital’s network infrastructure which frees up capital to devote to patient care initiatives.
