Blue Cloud Softech Solutions business update

The company on February 27 announced the successful closure of a $3.20 million contract to provide its indigenously developed AI-based healthcare management solution, the BluHealth Comprehensive Healthcare Platform, to a prominent US-based client.

“We are thrilled to bring the BluHealth Comprehensive Healthcare Platform to one of our esteemed clients in the United States. This landmark contract demonstrates our expertise in developing indigenous, AI-driven healthcare solutions that align with global needs while promoting transparency and efficiency in healthcare delivery," said Janaki Yarlagadda, Chairperson of Blue Cloud Softech Solutions.

"Our platform ensures that implementing organisations can achieve complete visibility into their programs, enabling them to serve their citizens better,” Yarlagadda said.

Meanwhile, after market hours on February 24, the company informed through an exchange filing that it had secured a work order from Pinnacle Hospitals India Pvt Ltd for the implementation of its advanced Outpatient Management System (OMS) at Pinnacle Hospitals, Visakhapatnam.

According to the company, the project, valued at ₹20.00 lakh + GST, marks a significant step in its ongoing commitment to transforming healthcare through AI-driven solutions.

"The OMS will streamline hospital workflows and enhance patient care through features such as home sample collection, pharmacy and lab integration, real-time inventory tracking, and multilingual voice dictation in Telugu and English," the company said.

The business update, however, failed to impress investors as the stock fell 1.45 per cent on February 25.
