relate to
Find solutions people
will want to use
Use design thinking to
think beyond the
original problem.
Create several
possible frames for a
solution.
What went wrong in
any previous
attempts?
Why is the problem
hard to solve?
What is the depth of
the problem?
Have there been any
previous attempts to
tackle it?
Archaeology Obstacles Re-Frame Set Vision
Understand the Technology Landscape
■ Learn about
technologies of interest
■ Match technology to the
need
■ Benchmark against
what is out there
6
Scan/Assess the Marketplace
Consider Healthcare Ecosystem
■ Identify the dynamics of
the ecosystem
■ Link the technology with
the ecosystem and
marketplace

■ What is the relationship to your
organizational structure?
■ How does it relate to what is
already being done?
■ In what way is it different from the
Core business?

Define Partnership
● Identify the right partner who has
the right product/service
● Align interests to ensure a win-win
strategy
● Find partners that allow you to
learn from their expertise or
methods
● Identify the appropriate talent
within each company
9
Establish the Cast of Characters
Project Scope
● Determine a stage for implementation:
● Set the target trajectory - Use “blue sky” thinking

DISCOVERY LAUNCH & SCALE
“Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue. And the dreams that
you dare to dream, really do come true.” - Dorothy
Define Your Data Strategy
Findable
● Define the data sources and types
● Obtain the raw data, if you can
Accessible
● Determine methodology for pretreatment of data to make it usable
Interoperable
● Ensure proper computing power and infrastructure
Reusable
● Select programming language(s) to be used, ensure reusable code
11
Apply the FAIR Principle
Transformation from a Data Perspective
12
Maximizing the Data Ecosystem
FROM TO
Disparate data sources with limited access Unified access to data sources which are connected
or “federated” and learn from the user
Few data types, focus on EHR data Integrated, multidisciplinary data ecosystems of
wearables, diagnostics, RWE, and genomics
Data stored in several places Data stored in a single data warehouse
Different data formats, unstructured data Structured data in standardized formats like FHIR
Controlling resources, optimizing internal
processes
Orchestrating and facilitating external resources
Applications of Digital Data

tools, set a common lexicon
■ Apply learning-curve
efficiencies to continuously
improve usability and
adoption
■ Identify any opportunity
costs
Build Stakeholder Buy-In
■ Involve key stakeholders to

throughout
■ Decision-making with
stakeholders requires using
the group’s collective
