Allied BDT has deep roots in research and development in Business and Public Health. Our experience started in 1995, overseas and in the USA. For years we have conducted research in academia and in the health industry.
Allied Business Development & Training (Allied BDT) brings together experienced biostatisticians, physicians, epidemiologists, computer scientists and business specialists. Our experts have completed projects of many scopes, sizes and budgets across School Health, Healthcare Administration, Public Health and Clinical Trials.
We work with pharmaceutical companies, health insurers, universities, governments and development agencies. Whatever the sector, our goal is the same: to minimize inefficiency and maximize prosperity by giving decision-makers evidence they can trust.
We apply hyper-heuristic algorithms toward optimization to achieve high quality and sustainability: maximizing what should be maximized, minimizing what should be minimized, and avoiding the weakness of non-standard or non-optimal solutions.
We transfer and integrate research methodologies, models and data among health fields, for example from administration to healthcare, so that proven ideas in one area solve problems in another.
Establishing studies that enhance health, wellness and healthcare for individuals, covering child and adolescent health, environmental health variables, school health systems and healthcare-policy implications.
Infrastructure that applies Lean and Six Sigma (DMAIC, QC/QA) and supports modern research with large-dataset analysis, quality methodology, tools, measurements and web/text mining.
Four phases (mobilizing, planning, piloting and implementing) aimed at quality, sustainability and optimum costs, with practical training courses and partnerships with government health departments.
