We recently developed the technical documentation for three specific Health Canada programs This included an options analysis for the long-term preservation of patient records for the Health Canada Information Management Department - First Nations Inuit Health Branch (FNIHB). Secondly, this included defining and setting up an Essential Records Program, which would comply with the overall the Health Canada Essential Records Program thereby supporting the continuity and maintenance of FNIHB's operations if interrupted. Finally, this included a Health Record Management (HRM) Capability study to define the requisite HRM capability, develop supporting tools, and provide a high level implementation plan for the First Nation and Inuit Health Branch (FNIHB) of Health Canada.

Networks:

GlobeConsult has an extensive background establishing and managing networks of all kinds. From simple point-to-point networks to complex multipoint-to-multipoint distribution systems in 911 PSAP,LAN, WLAN, VPLS, MAN, WAN, local access, inter-exchange, long distance, backbone, and community and rural environments. We have the necessary expertise working with the latest transport and access technologies. We can recommend specific network topologies for each unique situation.

Our engineering and technical staff are experienced in all areas of implementation planning. Each scheduled event is put into a critical path analysis to determine the impact each activity has on the other and to ensure the process is performed effectively, efficiently, well coordinated and in a seamless manner. Comprehensive test cases are produced and the verification process is conducted using simulated traffic and conditions similar to the live network before any networks are placed into service.

Our Newtwork Operations Planning has been developed the latest network strategies which provide the new thrusts necessary to drive additional planning processes. These planning activities generate new projects and plans. They basically include the Operation, Administration, Maintenance and Provisioning (OAM&P) network management aspects of the Open Systems Architecture (OSA) business model.
