Distant Point

What Distant Point does

Distant Point is a privately held software company founded in 2015 and headquartered in Skopje, North Macedonia, operating with a team of 16 employees. The company delivers managed IT services, custom software development, and domain-specific healthcare technology solutions, with a stated primary focus on medical institutions and enterprise organizations across North Macedonia, Malta, the United Kingdom, Europe more broadly, and the United States. Its core proprietary product is the Smart Portfolio System (SPS), a web-based educational platform designed for medical residency training that helps medical centers and university clinics manage training programs, monitor trainee progress, assess competencies, and support collaboration between trainees, supervisors, and program directors. Supporting offerings include custom web and mobile applications, managed IT infrastructure support, and AI-powered solutions positioned for process automation and predictive insights in healthcare and operational workflows.

The company's business model rests on three revenue streams: managed IT services contracts (recurring, long-term partnerships), project-based custom software development (one-time project revenue with potential maintenance follow-on), and subscription/recurring revenue from ready-to-use products such as SPS and its AI-powered solutions. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; engagements are quote-based and billed on an annual cadence. Distant Point operates a hybrid go-to-market combining direct enterprise sales for tailored projects and managed services with a product-led self-service motion for ready-to-use software, which is marketed through a dedicated product website (smartportfoliosystem.com).

The company is privately held with no disclosed investors, funding rounds, board composition, or executive leadership team. It holds no patents or trademarks and has no recognized certifications, awards, or regulatory actions on record. Marketing and lead generation are concentrated on the company website, the dedicated product website, and direct email contact, with no presence on LinkedIn, X, YouTube, GitHub, Facebook, or Instagram.

Others

• TEKsystems: TEKsystems is a large IT services and staffing provider delivering custom development, managed services, and IT consulting across industries including healthcare. It is comparable to Distant Point as an adjacent IT services ecosystem participant but does not focus on healthcare-vertical products.

Broad incumbents

• Optum (UnitedHealth Group): Optum is the largest healthcare technology and services conglomerate, offering EHR-adjacent platforms, analytics, and consulting to providers. It competes in the broader healthcare IT services space and frames the enterprise ceiling against which smaller players like Distant Point must differentiate.
• Slalom: Slalom is a global technology consulting firm with a dedicated healthcare practice delivering custom software, cloud, and data solutions to providers and payers — comparable to Distant Point in service mix but vastly larger and more diversified.
• West Monroe Partners: West Monroe is a management and technology consulting firm with a healthcare segment delivering custom software, integrations, and managed services to providers and payers — overlapping with Distant Point's healthcare IT services and custom development offering at much larger scale.
• Nordic Consulting Partners: Nordic is a large healthcare IT consulting and custom development firm serving hospitals and health systems. It overlaps with Distant Point on healthcare custom development and managed services but at meaningfully greater scale.

Direct peers

• MedHub: MedHub is a residency management SaaS platform used by academic medical centers to administer trainee scheduling, evaluations, and program compliance — the same problem domain that Distant Point's Smart Portfolio System targets, making it the most direct functional peer.
• Pivot Point Consulting: Pivot Point Consulting is a healthcare-focused IT services and consulting firm delivering custom software, managed services, and EHR-adjacent solutions — a close functional analog to Distant Point's mixed services-plus-product model.
• New Innovations: New Innovations provides residency and fellowship management software for medical institutions, including scheduling, evaluations, and program oversight. It competes directly with Smart Portfolio System in medical-education workflow SaaS.
