TRANSform planning & execution for Public Health

Why current tools fall short for public health departments

Most public health organizations rely on tools like Excel, PowerPoint, or project management software to manage strategic plans, community health improvement plans (CHIP), performance management, and PHAB accreditation plans. While these tools are effective in some areas, they’re not designed for managing complex, interconnected public health initiatives.

BI Tools

Business Intelligence Tools show just the data

Pros

  • Enables visualizations
  • Provides data-driven understanding of how the organization is performing

Cons

  • Show the “what,” but not the “why” or “how”

PM Tools

Project Management Tools are too focused in the weeds...and are disconnected

Pros

  • Provides detailed project statuses

Cons

  • Focused on tasks, not strategy
  • Impossible to connect initiatives
  • Difficult to get a big-picture view
  • Not user-friendly

Strategy Tools

Strategy Development Tools just focus on planning, NOT execution

Pros

  • Organize plans
  • Align teams

Cons

  • vLimited to planning; not built for execution
  • Often specific to one certain planning methodology
  • Not designed for cross-departmental collaboration
  • Limited flexibility

PPT + Excel

PowerPoint & Excel are manual & lack version control

Pros

  • Simple and user-friendly

Cons

  • Manual processes
  • Lack of version control
  • Reporting challenges

AchieveIt bridges these gaps by offering an integrated solution that connects planning, execution, and reporting
