Problem
Hospital informatics teams are overwhelmed by growing demand and limited budgets, leaving high-value EHR improvements buried in backlogs for months. Physicians face frustration when requests disappear into a black hole, and leaders cannot answer basic questions about when work will be delivered because dependencies are invisible across teams. Burnout-reducing improvements get deprioritized while staff drown in reporting instead of delivery.
Solution
Tikva brings proven software delivery practices from leading tech companies into healthcare IT, adapting them for clinical stakes and governance requirements. The platform provides an operational playbook including WIP limits, flow optimization, and transparency systems that help informatics teams move EHR improvements from intake to deployment faster and more predictably. It covers the full delivery lifecycle—intake, governance, build, test, and deploy—with continuous visibility across every stage. Tikva also applies UX thinking to process design, reducing friction in intake and governance flows to unlock weeks of hidden team capacity. The result is 2–3× faster delivery of EHR improvements without adding headcount or burning out staff.

Primary customers are healthcare IT and informatics teams supporting large-scale clinical environments, including hospital IT departments and healthcare consulting firms that partner to implement delivery improvements.
