University Hospitals Authority and Trust

What University Hospitals Authority and Trust does

University Hospitals Authority and Trust (UHAT) is a public trust of the State of Oklahoma, established in 1998 to advance medical research, education, and care on the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center (OUHSC) campus in Oklahoma City. It functions as the central facility management and capital infrastructure authority for the Oklahoma Health Center campus, managing 12 facilities including Nicholson, Garrison, Samis Education Center, Oklahoma Children's OU Health Atrium, the OU Health Transplant Institute, the College of Medicine/Andrews Academic Tower, and others. Since inception, UHAT has cumulatively invested over $1 billion in capital improvement projects, medical research support, and educational enhancements on the campus.

The organization operates two primary service offerings. 1CALL Facility Services (271call.com) is the facility management service that handles construction projects, maintenance requests, and operational support for the campus's 12 buildings. 1CALL Cloud (1call.cloud) is a cloud-based request management platform that digitizes Title 61 construction projects, Title 74 acquisition and purchasing workflows, and general facility management requests; user accounts on the platform serve as official electronic signatures for construction contracts, change orders, service agreements, and lease agreements. The technology stack is purpose-built for public-sector procurement and construction compliance rather than commercial SaaS distribution.

UHAT's business model is that of a state government entity, not a commercially revenue-generating enterprise. It is governed by a board chaired by G. Rainey Williams, Jr. (also chair of OU Health, Inc. and lead independent director of BancFirst), with vice-chairman Jim Everest, member and OUHSC Provost Gary E. Raskob, member and Oklahoma Health Care Authority CEO Clay Bullard, secretary Bill Lance, and CEO Randy Dowell (formerly CFO, with prior 17-year tenure at the Oklahoma State Senate). The customer base is structurally concentrated on a single campus ecosystem: OU Health, Oklahoma Children's Hospital, and OUHSC, with strategic partner relationships extending to Dean McGee Eye Institute, Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, and Presbyterian Health Foundation. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, consistent with its public-trust mandate.
