DC Advisory advised ShiftWise on its sale to AMN Healthcare

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 21, 2013 — AMN Healthcare Services, Inc. (NYSE: AHS), the innovator in healthcare workforce solutions and largest provider of staffing services in the nation, announced today the acquisition of ShiftWise, a leading national provider of web-based healthcare workforce solutions – including its vendor management system (VMS) – to hospitals and other healthcare systems.

ShiftWise technologies help manage internal float pool resources, contingent staffing vendors, time and attendance, and credentialing, while seamlessly integrating staffing resources into one proprietary system.

ShiftWise will retain its brand, location and leadership. It will continue to sell and support its vendor management technology directly to healthcare clients, affiliate vendors and to MSP providers, including AMN.  ShiftWise will continue to deliver vendor management solutions directly to customers independently of the AMN MSP offering.

We believe the addition of ShiftWise’s robust suite of vendor management software will complement AMN’s current Workforce Solutions offerings. This strategic acquisition is an investment in addressing the diverse needs of our clients by providing a unique vendor neutral technology option as well as other workforce technology solutions that will instantly expand our capabilities. We want to continue to evolve the ShiftWise mission and promote broad adoption of their unique technologies across the industry.

Our acquisition provides AMN with the ability to offer clients ShiftWise’s leading technology through a vendor neutral management solution and to power its managed services programs (MSP). We are excited to be a part of the AMN family and are committed to working together to provide our clients with a broad range of innovative workforce management solutions.
