Digital Innovation is committed to ensuring you understand what we are doing, why we are doing it, and how it serves you.
The DI Bulletin provides transparency, insights, strategic updates, and in-depth discussions to clearly communicate our independent trajectory, innovative solutions, and unmatched expertise which defines our leadership in trauma registry technology.
DI’s ownership group, DI’s leadership team, and DI’s core product & engineering teams have always maintained their independence and were never assimilated into ESO. Moreover, DICORP and its affiliates have always retained rights to:
The DI leadership team, key platform software architects, and an experienced senior team of trauma and registry software experts have remained with DI’s ownership group. None of these personnel were ever transitioned to ESO.
The ownership group also retained ownership of the DI name, domain, and brand.
DI's ownership group made a strategic decision to align with an integration partner to accelerate innovation and expand trauma interoperability. Internal DI decisions made prior to reaching any arrangement ensured:
While DI cannot speak for operations it did not control nor for experiences after 2019, DI’s ownership group followed its 5-year strategic plan:
Now that the planned five-year industry strategy period has ended, DI has reentered the trauma marketplace to ensure its innovations, offerings, and capabilities can be experienced:
From the very beginning, DI’s intent has been to ensure that innovations cost-effectively reach customers who have relied on founder-provided registry solutions since DI’s original founding in 1985 and the release of our first trauma registry solutions in 1987. For 33 years, from 1987 to 2019, DI registry solutions were fully controlled by its founder and ownership group. From 2025 onward, DI ensures that its ownership group retains control to provide constant innovation, exceptional customer service, and unparalleled value for DI customers.
Now, in 2025, we have fulfilled that commitment.
You need only look at the extreme dedication that DI’s founder and ownership group have demonstrated over the past five years to understand our resolve, intent, and commitment to serving this industry. The work trauma professionals perform saves lives and improves outcomes, and for DI, empowering that mission is what drives us every day.
In short, DI retained ownership rights to its core software without restriction and is free to operate without any limitations.
DI's technology excels in this area. Like an iceberg, the majority of the work is within the common core technology. The visible tailoring is just the top layer that adapts to:
DI’s powerful configuration capabilities enable rapid development of industry-specific tailoring that meets compliance and client needs.
DI’s timelines for configuration, onboarding, and go live dates mesh well with trauma centers and health systems compliance cycles and timeline transition objectives.
DI is ready to start projects immediately. Active discussions are already underway with trauma centers and health systems, with timelines aligning well with client objectives.
