Conclusion wins RIVM tender for the management and further development of Peridos

 

Conclusion to support RIVM and CLBPS with a reliable and future-ready system for prenatal screening

Conclusion has been awarded the contract by the Netherlands’ National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) for the management and further development of Peridos, the national information system for prenatal screening. With extensive experience in healthcare, Conclusion supports healthcare organisations in delivering digital transformation that works in practice.

Peridos is the national information system used to support, secure and register prenatal screening in the Netherlands. The platform enables the secure processing and exchange of data between healthcare professionals, laboratories and screening organisations, supporting the entire prenatal screening pathway. As such, Peridos plays an essential role in ensuring that prenatal screening is carried out carefully, reliably and on time within the public healthcare system.

The tender therefore places stringent demands on reliability and continuity, including a 99.9 per cent uptime requirement due to the medically critical nature of the service. Functional application management is carried out by the Coöperatie Landelijk Bureau Prenatale Screening (CLBPS). Conclusion will be responsible for the technical management, hosting and ongoing development of Peridos on the AWS platform. The contract has an initial term of four years, with the option to extend twice for an additional three years.

Across the Conclusion ecosystem, more than 200 specialists with healthcare expertise work on complex challenges in and around the healthcare sector, ranging from collaboration and capacity management to digitalisation and information exchange. By combining sector knowledge with IT expertise at strategic, tactical and operational levels, Conclusion helps organisations implement reliable solutions that can adapt to changing needs and circumstances.

Conclusion’s development teams are also involved in initiatives including the National Healthcare Coordination Platform (Landelijk Platform Zorgcoördinatie). For Conclusion, this partnership represents an important milestone given the societal significance of RIVM as a client.

Mark Elstgeest, director of Business Consultancy at Conclusion, said: "This contract underlines our ambition to support organisations that make a direct contribution to society. Peridos is a business-critical system within public healthcare. Thanks to our knowledge of the healthcare sector and our experience in managing critical IT systems, we are well positioned to provide RIVM with a stable, future-ready and high-quality solution."
