An optimisation engine that sits beside the existing system, reads what it already produces, and closes maintenance planning. Aimed at healthcare practice owners, proving value before anyone signs anything.
In short: Maintenance Planner for Healthcare Practice Owners is an optimisation engine aimed at healthcare practice owners, covering maintenance planning. It scores 72/100 on AltF Ideas, carried by demand (95) and held back by feasibility (24). Typical pricing is $21k–$316k per customer per year, with a first version reachable in six to twelve months for $44k–$125k.
Healthcare teams lose maintenance done on a calendar rather than on condition. The work sits between two systems that were never designed to talk. The error rate is tolerated because measuring it would cost more than the errors.
A narrow optimisation engine scoped to maintenance planning alone — no platform, no migration, no six-month rollout. Revenue is managed service, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.

Solver capacity that once needed a research budget now runs on commodity hardware. Healthcare is growing at roughly 19% a year, and this job has not been re-tooled since it was designed around paper.
| Who | The gap |
|---|---|
| An offshore back office | Cheaper per hour, but does not scale down to the tail |
| A vertical competitor | Priced and scoped for enterprise accounts, not this segment |
| A spreadsheet | The real incumbent in most of the market, and it is free |
Trust has to be earned before anyone lets this run unsupervised.
