Platform services

You get the product, and access to real engineers.

No tier-1 gatekeeping. No "have you tried restarting the engine." You reach integration engineers who know your interfaces and are allowed to act on the estate, rather than file a ticket about it.

Scope

Second-line support, and the work that prevents needing it.

We sit behind your team, not in front of your users. You keep the relationship with the clinicians and the vendors. We take the part that requires knowing what an MSH-9 is.

Incidents & break-fix

A production backstop. We diagnose, contain, fix and replay, then tell you in plain language what happened and what changed so it doesn't recur.

New interface builds

Design, build, test and document new integrations, including the vendor chasing, the spec that doesn't match reality, and the test evidence your change board wants.

Documentation & inventory

A living inventory of every interface: endpoints, owners, message types, volumes, dependencies. The document you keep meaning to write.

Migration guidance

Moving off Rhapsody, Mirth, Cloverleaf, Corepoint, BizTalk or Ensemble, with parity proven by shadowing live traffic, interface by interface.

registry-vxu is retrying with ACK^AE, "VXU-3 invalid". Nothing changed on our side.

Looking. Queue is holding, nothing lost. The registry started rejecting CVX 213 this morning, so it looks like their validation rather than your mapping. No patient data needed to see that, the reject codes are enough.

Confirmed with them. Mapping added for the new code. Replay now, or wait for your morning?

What good support looks like

Recognition, then a fix.

Most of what people want from support is not a response-time number in a contract. It is someone who recognises the problem on sight, and is allowed to do something about it.

  • Named engineers, not a rota of strangers. People who know your interfaces and your quirks.
  • Jira Service Management. One portal, one audit trail, one place to see status. Email and phone for the people who prefer them.
  • Authorised to act. Scoped, audited access, so the fix happens on the call instead of after an approval chain.
  • No patient data required. Diagnosis runs on structure, headers and error codes. We don't ask for PHI, and we'd rather you didn't send it.
  • Proactive watch. Quiet-endpoint alarms and backlog thresholds mean we often open the ticket before you notice.
Engine-agnostic

It works on the engine you already have.

Plenty of customers come to us with an estate they have no plans to replace. That's fine. We support what you run, and if Grid ever makes sense we'll say so at the point it does, not before.

Onboarding

Two weeks from signature to genuinely useful.

Week 0, estate walkthrough

Two sessions with whoever knows the quirks. We build the interface inventory, capture the tribal knowledge, and agree how things get escalated.

Week 1, access and instrumentation

Scoped, audited access to your engine and monitoring. We add the alarms that should already exist: quiet endpoints, backlog thresholds, error-rate spikes.

Week 2, shadow then take first response

We shadow your team through a live week, then take first response on incoming tickets. Your engineers stay in the loop; the difference is they can go to sleep.

Ongoing, quarterly review

What broke, what we fixed, what we'd change. Written, with the boring metrics your leadership will ask for.

Practicalities

Service FAQ

Is this really included, or is there a plan I have to buy?

Included. You get the product and access to real engineers: incidents, break-fix, new interface builds and documentation. There's no support tier to upgrade to and no separate services contract to sign before someone will answer you.

Do you replace our integration team?

No, and we'd be suspicious of anyone who said yes. We're second line. Your team keeps the clinical relationships, the change governance and the institutional knowledge. We take the deep engine work, the awkward incidents and the builds that are eating your roadmap. Teams that treat us as a replacement get worse outcomes than teams that treat us as depth.

What if we're not on Grid?

Then we support what you're on. Rhapsody, Mirth, Iguana, Cloverleaf, Corepoint, BizTalk, Ensemble, or something a contractor wrote in 2011. Our engineers came out of this industry and have already run most of these. There's no requirement, and no quiet pressure, to migrate.

How much access do you need, and will you see patient data?

As little as will let us actually fix things: read on message metadata and logs, and operate on workflows. We do not need to see PHI and we don't ask for it, because diagnosis runs on structure, headers and error codes. If you're tempted to paste a real message into a ticket, don't. De-identify it first, and we'll say so if you don't.

How do we raise something?

Jira Service Management, with your own portal and a full audit trail, or email and phone if that suits you better. Urgent issues reach an engineer directly however they arrive.

Talk to an engineer, not an SDR

Tell us what woke you up last month.

Thirty minutes. We'll tell you honestly whether this is a support problem, an architecture problem, or a vendor problem, and which of those we can help with.
