What PAR Excellence Systems does

PAR Excellence Systems, Inc. is a US-based healthcare supply chain technology company headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, founded in 1992 and operating since 1993. The company sells an integrated inventory management platform to hospitals, integrated delivery networks (IDNs), and government healthcare customers, combining cloud-based software (PAR Vision, PAR Mobile, PAR Charge, PAR 360), proprietary hardware (weight-based scales, RFID-enabled cabinets and refrigerators, electronic shelf labels with 10+ year battery life), and value-added services such as implementation, training, and support. The platform tracks roughly $2 billion of healthcare supply inventory in real time across an installed base of approximately 2 million weight-based scales and 2,400 active EHR/ERP integrations, and reportedly serves more than 1,700 healthcare providers.

The product portfolio has been expanded through three 2024-2025 transactions: the September 2024 acquisition by private equity sponsor OceanSound Partners from Northlane Capital Partners; the January 2025 acquisition of NotiSphere, which provides medical device recall communications software; and the March 2025 merger with TrackCore, Inc., which adds cloud-based RFID tissue and implant tracking software used by more than 1,300 hospitals for UDI, Joint Commission, FDA, and AATB compliance. Following these combinations, PAR Excellence also offers a SameDay bill-only implant management solution, a TrackCore Interventional module for cath/EP/IR labs, a TrackCore Warranty Tracking module aligned with OIG/Medicare expectations, and PAR 360, a mobile workforce-optimization control tower launched in June 2025 with Community Health Network as beta site.

Revenue is generated through three streams: recurring SaaS subscriptions to the cloud platform, hardware unit sales (scales, RFID enclosures, refrigerators, electronic shelf labels), and professional services for deployment and support. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; multi-year contracts are common given the hardware footprint and the depth of EHR/ERP integration work. The go-to-market is an enterprise field-sales motion targeting supply chain leadership at large healthcare systems, with messaging anchored on quantified outcomes such as recovered charge capture, overstock reduction, and recall response time. The CEO is identified in company communications as Thad MacKrell following the OceanSound transaction; legacy references to Joseph Dattilo as CEO and founder also appear in some data sources.

Scale indicators8 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Oracle Health (Cerner): Oracle Health (formerly Cerner) supplies EHR and clinical applications to large hospital systems. Comparable to PAR as a healthcare IT incumbent whose Millennium platform increasingly overlaps with supply chain and inventory management workflows that PAR integrates with.
• McKesson: McKesson is one of the largest pharmaceutical and medical supply distributors, with an extensive hospital technology and supply chain services portfolio. Comparable to PAR as a healthcare supply chain participant, though its scale and breadth are significantly larger and span distribution, biopharma services, and retail pharmacy.
• Epic Systems: Epic is the dominant EHR vendor for large US health systems and increasingly embeds supply chain and inventory workflows into its platform. Comparable to PAR as a hospital IT incumbent; overlap exists where Epic's modules address inventory, charge capture, and implant documentation functions that PAR's integrations support.
• Cardinal Health: Cardinal Health is a major medical product distributor and parent of WaveMark. Overlaps with PAR's hospital supply chain offerings through its distribution scale and WaveMark technology, but does not specialize exclusively in healthcare supply chain SaaS the way PAR does.
• BD (Becton, Dickinson and Company): BD is a global medical technology company offering medication management and supply chain solutions alongside its device portfolio. Comparable to PAR through its healthcare inventory and medication management software, but operates as a much broader incumbent across devices, diagnostics, and life sciences.
• Owens & Minor: Owens & Minor provides medical product distribution and supply chain management solutions, including Apria and Byram healthcare segments. Comparable to PAR through hospital supply chain services and Patient Direct home medical equipment offerings, but operates at much larger distribution scale.

Others

• Impinj: Impinj is a leading provider of RAIN RFID tags, readers, and connectivity infrastructure used in healthcare inventory and asset tracking. Comparable to PAR as an enabling RFID technology provider whose hardware underpins PAR's RFID enclosures and tissue/implant tracking solutions.
• Zebra Technologies: Zebra Technologies is a leading provider of barcode scanners, RFID readers, and mobile computing hardware used across healthcare supply chain operations. Comparable to PAR as the underlying hardware infrastructure that PAR's platform runs on; partners and competes at the device layer.

Direct peers

• WaveMark Solutions (Cardinal Health): Cardinal Health's WaveMark provides RFID-enabled inventory and tissue/implant tracking for hospitals. Directly comparable to PAR's RFID and TrackCore offerings, serving the same healthcare provider customers with similar cloud-based supply chain visibility workflows.
• TECSYS: TECSYS provides supply chain management software for healthcare and other regulated industries. Overlaps with PAR's cloud-based inventory automation and analytics capabilities, particularly for multi-site healthcare systems managing distributed inventory.
