RLDatix, the leading global provider of connected healthcare operations software and services, announced today an agreement to acquire Breitenbach Software Engineering GmbH (“Breitenbach”), a Germany-based integrated solutions provider specializing in workforce management.

“The acquisition of Breitenbach is an exciting opportunity to expand our workforce management offerings in Germany, building upon RLDatix’s expertise in connected healthcare operations” said Jeff Surges, RLDatix CEO . “As we continue to invest in solutions enabling safer care delivery around the world, we remain dedicated to developing solutions that meet the needs of the German market and beyond.”
