iSOFT releases Lorenzo 3.6 and unveils smart strategy
Banbury - 12 October 2010 -

iSOFT Group Limited (ASX:ISF) today announced key Lorenzo
developments, including the release of Lorenzo 3.6 and a drive to make Lorenzo components available to
meet specific market needs, under its new Smart Solutions strategy.
The latest release of Lorenzo Enterprise features a host of new and improved functions, including nurse
process management. Under a policy of delivering quarterly updates of new features and improvements,
the new nursing functions are for managing day-to-day tasks, clinical forms and correspondence and
clinical noting. Lorenzo 3.7, due next year, will include additional nursing functions such as shift handover
support and patient cockpit.
The nursing component is just one key element of iSOFT?s Lorenzo Smart Solution strategy to provide vital
new applications to the market at lower costs, in a faster go-to-market fashion, and allowing its customers
to benefit from new functionalities. Based on Microsoft?s Silverlight technology, these are infrastructure-light
solutions that can be installed without the need for new hardware, additional database licenses, or the
upheaval of replacing existing systems.
The need for nurse process management applications is particularly apparent in Germany with several
iSOFT customers ready to take the new application.
The new components are designed to sit alongside existing iSOFT solutions, but also give iSOFT the
opportunity to gain a foothold at other hospitals.
Andrea Fiumicelli, iSOFT?s acting Chief Executive Officer, says the Smart Solutions concept is an important
development as it gives customers the opportunity to begin their Lorenzo journey. ?The initiative gives
customers crucial functionality and the opportunity to introduce future-proof technologies, but also to begin
an incremental path to the full Lorenzo suite of patient and clinical applications.?
The Lorenzo Smart Solution strategy will focus on elements such as nursing, complex enterprise
scheduling, interoperability, portals, medication management, and others.
