Conduent Upgrades Oklahoma's Public Health Surveillance with Advanced Maven System

Conduent Enhances Public Health Surveillance in Oklahoma

Conduent Incorporated, a global leader in technology-driven business solutions, has recently secured a significant contract with the Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH) to implement its advanced Maven® Disease Surveillance & Outbreak Management System. This initiative is crucial as it replaces an outdated public health surveillance system, marking a substantial upgrade in the state's ability to manage public health threats. The introduction of this cloud-based platform is expected to enhance OSDH's capabilities in swiftly detecting, monitoring, tracking, and reporting infectious disease outbreaks, thereby transforming data into actionable insights that protect the health of Oklahoma's 4 million residents.

Christie McDonald-Hamm, Surveillance Officer at OSDH, highlights the critical role that modern technology plays in identifying outbreaks and managing cases efficiently. The Maven system, which has been successfully utilized by 28 government agencies worldwide for over two decades, is specifically designed to facilitate real-time monitoring and reporting of a wide range of diseases. This includes not only high-profile threats such as COVID-19, Ebola, and Zika but also over 100 other communicable and non-communicable diseases. The system's robust tracking capabilities promise to enhance the state's responsiveness to public health emergencies, thereby fostering a healthier environment for Oklahomans.

Anna Sever, President of Government Solutions at Conduent, expresses enthusiasm about the partnership with OSDH, emphasizing the platform's AI-enabled technology. This cutting-edge capability ensures that public health teams have access to the necessary transparency, security, and adaptability required to effectively manage disease outbreaks. Conduent's commitment to leveraging advanced technologies such as cloud computing and machine learning aligns with its mission to deliver effective digital business solutions not only in government sectors but also across commercial and transportation domains. The integration of such innovative solutions aims to create valuable outcomes for clients and the millions of individuals who rely on their services.

In addition to its work with OSDH, Conduent continues to expand its influence in the public health sector by providing critical tools and resources that allow government agencies to respond effectively to health crises. The Maven system stands as a testament to Conduent's dedication to improving public health infrastructure through technology.

As the pandemic underscores the importance of robust health surveillance systems, Conduent's initiatives reflect a broader industry trend towards using advanced technology to tackle public health challenges.
