This provided considerable freedom to the scientists and with its success IBM executives gained the confidence they needed to look beyond the United States for a third lab.

  • IBM Global Services: a Brief History
    IBM Global Services: A Brief History IBM Corporate Archives May 2002 2405SH01 2 OVERVIEW Background In 1991 IBM was a $64.8 billion company, of which less than $6 billion was derived from non-maintenance services. Ten short years later, the business of information technology (IT) services alone generated more than 40 percent of IBM’s $86 billion in sales and had become the single largest source of revenue in IBM’s portfolio. How did that happen? It was partly the result of old-fashioned hard work and serious commitment: growing customer by customer; building disciplined management and financial systems; and investing to hire and train experts in everything from IT consulting to systems architecture and Web services. IBM used its financial strength to fund the expensive push into outsourcing, and the company placed informed bets on the future in areas such as IT utility services (“e-business on demand”) and hosted storage. But most important, the success of IBM Global Services came from something very simple: a clear understanding of customers’ needs. IBM saw that technology and business were converging to create something new and challenging for every kind of enterprise. And IBM had the deep experience in both areas to help its customers bring them together most effectively. The following pages offer a brief look at the history and growth of the organization that is today IBM’s top revenue generator. Definitions What are “services?” In the IT world, that broad term has encompassed dozens of offerings and meanings, including consulting, custom programming, systems integration (designing, building and installing complex information systems), systems operations (in which a vendor runs part or all of a company’s information systems), business innovation services (such as supply chain management), strategic outsourcing, application management services, integrated technology services (such as business recovery), networking services, learning services, security services, storage services and wireless services.

  • Treatment and Differential Diagnosis Insights for the Physician's
    Treatment and differential diagnosis insights for the physician’s consideration in the moments that matter most The role of medical imaging in global health systems is literally fundamental. Like labs, medical images are used at one point or another in almost every high cost, high value episode of care. Echocardiograms, CT scans, mammograms, and x-rays, for example, “atlas” the body and help chart a course forward for a patient’s care team. Imaging precision has improved as a result of technological advancements and breakthroughs in related medical research. Those advancements also bring with them exponential growth in medical imaging data. The capabilities referenced throughout this document are in the research and development phase and are not available for any use, commercial or non-commercial. Any statements and claims related to the capabilities referenced are aspirational only. There were roughly 800 million multi-slice exams performed in the United States in 2015 alone. Those studies generated approximately 60 billion medical images. At those volumes, each of the roughly 31,000 radiologists in the U.S. would have to view an image every two seconds of every working day for an entire year in order to extract potentially life-saving information from a handful of images hidden in a sea of data. 31K 800MM 60B radiologists exams medical images What’s worse, medical images remain largely disconnected from the rest of the relevant data (lab results, patient-similar cases, medical research) inside medical records (and beyond them), making it difficult for physicians to place medical imaging in the context of patient histories that may unlock clues to previously unconsidered treatment pathways.
