Kitman Labs Expands NCAA Partnerships with University of Miami
MENLO PARK, Calif. and CORAL GABLES, Fla. – Kitman Labs, the global enterprise SaaS platform providing the only single, centralized operating system for performance intelligence in Sports, today announced a new deal with the University of Miami to deploy its Performance Medicine Solution as the advanced EMR for all 18 men’s and women’s athletics programs.
Performance Medicine is one of four Solutions in Kitman Labs’ advanced operating system, iP: Intelligence Platform. The Intelligence Platform will centralize all medical data – historical and current – in one platform, providing a complete and accurate 360° view of each student-athlete from a physical and mental health perspective and a shared, single source of truth for all relevant stakeholders – eliminating information silos and driving collaboration across coaches, practitioners and student-athletes alike.
By deploying Performance Medicine across the entire Athletic Department, the University of Miami will now be able to unify all medical data and workflows in a singular operating system – powering data-led, evidence-based decision-making related to student-athlete care, informing strategies to support student-athlete performance and health as well as injury and reinjury reduction and treatment across every sport. In addition, the seamless automation within the platform will drive overall efficiencies across each Department and enable practitioners to spend more time with their athletes and less time on data collection, information processing and analysis.
“In fully researching Kitman Labs we found that by deploying Performance Medicine across all teams, we not only ensure that our medical staff has the tooling and resources necessary to consistently capture complete and accurate medical data but also the advanced analytics capabilities to generate the insights and actionable intelligence to inform best-in-class player care,” said Rachelle Paul, Deputy Athletic Director/Senior Woman Administrator, University of Miami. “We look forward to partnering with them.”
“There are many challenges associated with a multi-sport collegiate environment – the volume and diversity of sports, the number of stakeholders and practitioners across Athletic Departments, the directive to provide holistic student-athlete care, the need to support data integrity and mobility within a dynamic student and administrative marketplace and the list goes on,” said Stephen Smith, CEO and Founder of Kitman Labs. “By deploying Performance Medicine department-wide, the University of Miami is providing a seamless and shared data and analytics infrastructure capable of supporting the needs of myriad internal clients today with the ability to scale and innovate based on the demands of the market tomorrow.”
Kitman Labs has an established track record of working with top universities, governing bodies, leagues, teams and athletes across a variety of sports, including soccer/global football, basketball, rugby, and American football. The company’s technology has been used by leagues and teams in some of the world’s most elite sports organizations and universities including the National Football League (NFL), National Basketball Association (NBA), Major League Soccer (MLS), National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) and National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA).
