What Picis does

Picis Clinical Solutions, Inc. is a U.S.-based healthcare information technology vendor that develops integrated software for the perioperative and critical care continuum. Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Wakefield, Massachusetts (with an additional U.S. office in Peabody and an international office in Barcelona, Spain), the company serves more than 400 hospitals globally and is deployed in over 70 U.S. federal medical centers and clinics under the VA Technical Reference Model. Picis operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of N. Harris Computer Corporation, a diversified vertical-market software conglomerate, and is privately held.

The company's platform is built around four modular suites: the Perioperative Suite (Preop Manager, OR Manager, Anesthesia Manager, PACU Manager, SmarTrack Next), the Clinical Information System Suite (extending into ICU via Critical Care Manager), the Government Suite (tailored for VA and federal facilities including new State/Tribal/IHS deployments), and the Experior ASC Suite for ambulatory surgery centers. Supporting add-ons include Envision Analytics (powered by Microsoft Power BI), Device Hub, SmartRequest, PriorityQ, Orchestrator, Waveforms, RapidICU, and Sepsis Screening. A central technical differentiator is a proprietary library of more than 400 native device drivers enabling direct connectivity to ventilators, infusion pumps, anesthesia machines, and monitors without third-party middleware, creating a single contiguous patient record spanning preop through ICU.

Picis generates revenue primarily through enterprise software licensing and multi-year subscription agreements with hospitals, healthcare systems, and federal facilities, with implementation, training, and ongoing support bundled into contracts. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, reflecting the consultative enterprise sales motion evidenced by 'Request a Demo' and 'Let's Talk' CTAs. Distribution is dual-channel: a direct enterprise field sales force targeting large IDNs and federal customers, supplemented by a reseller partner portal. The company pursues certification-led expansion into federal procurement (VA TRM, GSA pricing, active BPA) and international public-sector deployments such as the Saskatchewan eHealth contract awarded for implementation beginning fall 2026.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Emerging players

• Hicuity Health: Hicuity Health delivers tele-ICU and acute care monitoring services using critical care data streams. While its model is services-led rather than software-led, it competes for the same ICU customer budget and overlaps thematically with Picis' Critical Care Manager.

Broad incumbents

• Oracle Health (Cerner): Oracle Health's Cerner Millennium includes surgical and perioperative modules and serves many of the same large hospital systems Picis targets. Its scale and bundled pricing represent the most consistent competitive threat to Picis' enterprise footprint.
• Epic Systems: Epic is the dominant enterprise EHR and offers surgical and anesthesia modules within its broader acute care suite. It competes for the same hospital perioperative budget Picis targets and frequently displaces best-of-breed vendors during EHR consolidation.
• GE HealthCare: GE HealthCare offers perioperative and critical care solutions spanning anesthesia delivery, patient monitoring, and care analytics. It competes with Picis across the same hospital workflow, often as part of a bundled equipment-and-software procurement.
• Dräger: Dräger provides anesthesia machines, ICU ventilators, and integrated perioperative/critical care software. It overlaps with Picis on the clinical workflow layer around anesthesia and ICU and is a comparable enterprise vendor in OR/ICU settings.
• Spacelabs Healthcare: Spacelabs provides patient monitoring and connected care solutions for perioperative and critical care environments. It competes with Picis in the data integration and clinical workflow space surrounding OR and ICU device data.
• MEDITECH: MEDITECH provides acute-care EHR systems with perioperative functionality to community and mid-sized hospitals. It competes with Picis at the same customer tier where perioperative depth matters, particularly for integrated delivery networks.

Direct peers

• Capsule Technologies (Philips): Capsule, now part of Philips, is a leading medical device integration (MDI) platform that aggregates data from bedside devices. It is the most direct functional analog to Picis' 400+ device driver library and Device Hub connectivity layer.
• iMDsoft: iMDsoft's MetaVision is a critical care information system for ICUs, closely paralleling Picis' Critical Care Manager. It targets the same high-acuity documentation market and competes head-to-head for ICU and anesthesia EMR contracts.
• Surgical Information Systems (SIS): SIS provides ambulatory surgery center (ASC) and hospital perioperative software — direct overlap with Picis' Perioperative and Experior ASC suites, including scheduling, documentation, and supply chain management for surgical environments.
