Expansion momentum Advocate Good Shepherd Hospital is part of a large, growing health system actively expanding its footprint in Chicago and opening new facilities, including a state-of-the-art hospital on Chicago's South Side and ongoing headcount growth. This presents opportunities to engage in enterprise IT, facilities management, staffing solutions, and revenue cycle enhancements aligned with their expansion strategy.

Workforce growth The organization plans to hire approximately 1,000 new employees by the end of 2027 across its South Chicagoland operations, signaling sustained demand for scalable HR, recruiting, onboarding, training, and workforce management technologies and services.

Education partnerships Strategic collaboration with Covista to expand nursing education and build a direct pipeline of practice-ready nurses highlights a demand for workforce development programs, clinical training platforms, simulation tools, and partnerships that support pipeline and credentialing needs.

Technology modernization A broad tech stack including SAS, Google BigQuery, Azure, Microsoft 365, SharePoint, and Bluebeam indicates ongoing data analytics, cloud adoption, collaboration, and digital workflow modernization opportunities for data integration, EHR optimization, and operational analytics.

Quality leadership position Recognition as best in Illinois by U.S. News & World Report and status as part of Advocate Health Care—the largest fully integrated network in Illinois—suggests high value in enterprise-wide sourcing for imaging, patient experience platforms, and standardized, scalable compliance and risk management solutions.
