Certified Problem Solver

Alamac is a verifiable, established healthcare analytics consultancy acquired by VitalHub (TSX: VHI) in 2021. While the project demonstrates high real-world utility and verified traction within the NHS (deployed in ~64% of English NHS regions via the parent group), the submission itself is of low quality, featuring vague claims ('everyone', 'most people') and messy data entry. The score reflects the legitimate business value and acquisition history, heavily penalized for the poor quality of the specific submission text and lack of technical distinctiveness beyond standard consulting/analytics.
