Deloitte announced it had acquired substantially all of the assets of End Point’s industry-leading disease surveillance business, CasePointer. This acquisition brings additional experienced and skilled software engineers, cloud developers, DevOps engineers, epidemiologists, and former public health officials to Deloitte.
End Point’s team is one of the premier implementers of EpiTrax, an open-source platform for collecting, organizing, and maintaining epidemiological data. When combined with Deloitte’s GovConnect digital assets, it will help enable public health agencies to better identify, investigate, and mitigate communicable diseases, environmental hazards, and bioterrorism events while fortifying their emergency response efforts.
In September 2023, Deloitte announced the expansion of its suite of tools for health and human services agencies with Generative AI to help state and local government clients strengthen and streamline the provision of vital benefits and services.
Deloitte is only acquiring assets related to End Point’s CasePointer business, and all other business lines remain with End Point.
