New Marketplace App delivers real-time workforce intelligence and actionable labor productivity insights for healthcare organizations

CHICAGO, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Impact Advisors, a leading healthcare management consulting firm, today announced the launch of OPTIX Workforce Intelligence, a healthcare-focused workforce analytics and labor productivity solution now available on Workday Marketplace.

“Healthcare leaders need timely, actionable information to effectively manage labor, align staffing with patient demand and respond to rapidly changing operational conditions,” said Brian Evans, vice president, Workday Services at Impact Advisors

Built natively in Workday, OPTIX Workforce Intelligence helps healthcare organizations improve labor productivity, workforce planning and operational decision-making through real-time analytics, benchmarking and actionable dashboards. The solution combines payroll, organizational, worker and cost center data in Workday with optional operational data, including EHR statistics, agency labor information and departmental targets.

“Healthcare leaders need timely, actionable information to effectively manage labor, align staffing with patient demand and respond to rapidly changing operational conditions,” said Brian Evans, vice president of Workday services, Impact Advisors. “OPTIX Workforce Intelligence brings those insights directly into Workday, giving leaders a familiar, secure environment where they can understand performance, identify opportunities and move from insight to action.”

OPTIX Workforce Intelligence provides workforce productivity dashboards, variance reporting, trend analysis, scorecards, and forecasting insights for department leaders, finance teams, HR leaders, workforce planning teams, and executives. Users can monitor overtime, agency and non-productive labor; evaluate pay-period and year-to-date workforce variances; benchmark performance; and drill into the factors affecting labor productivity and cost.

The solution connects labor insights with operational decisions. For example, nurse managers can assess census, acuity, volume, worked hours, paid hours, and labor costs to determine whether staffing is aligned with current needs. Finance leaders can use enterprise and cost-center views to examine labor performance, understand demand, and identify how overtime, agency labor, and non-productive time affect overall costs.

Because OPTIX Workforce Intelligence operates within Workday, organizations benefit from the Workday user experience, navigation, reporting, governance, and native security framework. The solution also reduces reliance on spreadsheets, disconnected reporting tools, and manual data feeds while helping organizations maximize the value of their existing Workday investment.

OPTIX Workforce Intelligence uses Workday Prism Analytics to blend Workday-native information with optional external operational data. Customers subscribing to the Marketplace solution receive the Prism capability required for OPTIX Workforce Intelligence as part of the subscription, eliminating the need to purchase a separate standalone Workday Prism Analytics license.

“Labor performance management belongs at the core of the ERP, not outside of it,” added Dan Sell, vice president, Workday Innovation. “By embedding workforce intelligence into the system healthcare leaders already use, OPTIX Workforce Intelligence helps organizations connect actions to outcomes, plan proactively and make informed labor decisions with greater speed and confidence.”

OPTIX Workforce Intelligence works with Workday Human Capital Management (HCM), Workday Payroll, Organizations, Cost Centers, and Worker Data, as well as optional external sources such as EHR statistics, agency labor systems, and budgeting or target systems. The solution supports healthcare organizations seeking to address rising labor costs, staffing shortages, workforce allocation challenges, and labor productivity improvement initiatives.

New project-managed program brings commercial moving, logistics, and facilities services together, with a clearly defined scope of work for every project.

WATERTOWN, Mass., Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Olympia today announced the launch of Scope 360™, a project-managed commercial moving program designed to help organizations plan and execute office relocations, workplace reconfigurations, and asset transitions with greater clarity, coordination, and control.

Commercial relocations are rarely just about moving furniture,” said Michael Gilmartin, founder and CEO of Olympia. “They involve people, facilities, technology, vendors, schedules, and business-continuity decisions. Scope 360 gives clients one experienced team to coordinate the entire transition.

Scope 360 brings the many moving parts of a commercial transition together through a single, coordinated plan. From defining the initial scope and managing building requirements to relocation, installation, storage, technology coordination, and final closeout, the program helps organizations minimize disruption and keep projects moving forward.

Scope 360 services include:

Office, workplace, and internal relocationsCommercial storage and asset managementWarehousing, receiving, delivery, and project stagingFurniture, fixtures, and equipment receiving and installationIT disconnect, relocation, and reconnect coordinationRental-crate delivery and moving materialsLiquidation, decommissioning, recycling, and responsible disposalFacilities support, departmental reshuffles, and phased movesEmergency and restoration logisticsPre-move planning, building coordination, and move-day execution

Each Scope 360 engagement begins with a customized project scope based on the organization’s facilities, inventory, timeline, operational requirements, and stakeholders. A dedicated project team coordinates the work to help reduce downtime, maintain accountability, and address potential issues before they affect the schedule.

The program is designed to support office and corporate clients as well as healthcare organizations, laboratories, universities, technology companies, professional-services firms, government agencies, and other institutions managing complex or time-sensitive transitions.

Scope 360 is available through Olympia’s operations in Greater Boston, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Austin, and Tampa, with support for regional, interstate, phased, and multi-site projects.

Olympia’s commercial team manages relocations for corporate offices, hospitals, universities, and laboratories, coordinating everything from equipment disconnect and reconnect to phased, multi-day move execution.

“Scope 360 reflects how our commercial team already approaches complex projects: understand the complete picture, build the right plan, and stay accountable through the final detail,” Gilmartin added. “The name gives that approach a clear identity and makes it easier for clients to access Olympia’s full range of commercial capabilities.”

100kW and 72kW Power Shelf solutions highlight Acbel’s expanding capabilities in high-density AI data center power infrastructure

SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Acbel Polytech Inc., a global provider of power solutions, today announced that it will showcase its latest high-density power solutions at OCP Global Summit 2026, taking place October 13–15 in San Jose, California. Exhibiting alongside its subsidiary OmniOn Power, Acbel will demonstrate power technologies supporting ±400V/800V DC and 50V DC architectures for AI data center infrastructure.

As AI computing continues to scale, higher-power GPUs and accelerators are driving significant increases in server- and rack-level power requirements. These demands are accelerating the shift toward power architectures that deliver greater power density and efficiency while maintaining reliability and deployment flexibility.

For ±400V/800V DC architectures, Acbel will showcase its 100kW Power Shelf, which delivers 100kW of output in a compact 1OU form factor. Combined with Acbel’s patented PDU design, the solution can be configured for either ±400V or 800V output based on customer requirements, supporting flexible deployment across different data center DC power architectures.

For 50V DC architectures, Acbel will feature its 19-inch 72kW Power Shelf, incorporating 12kW power modules with power density of up to 102 W/in³. The modules have achieved 80 PLUS Ruby certification, delivering high power density and energy efficiency for increasingly power-intensive AI infrastructure. Acbel is also developing liquid-cooled power technologies to address rising power density and thermal requirements as AI computing platforms continue to evolve.

“AI is fundamentally changing how power infrastructure is designed for data centers,” said Sven Lee, Vice President of Power and Energy Solutions Business at Acbel. “As rack power continues to increase, customers need solutions that deliver more power within limited space without compromising efficiency, reliability or flexibility. Acbel is building on its power conversion expertise to expand from high-density power solutions toward more advanced data center power architectures and liquid-cooled technologies.”

Acbel’s participation in OCP Global Summit 2026 reflects the company’s continued expansion in AI data center power infrastructure and its commitment to collaborating with cloud service providers, server manufacturers and ecosystem partners to address evolving power requirements.

MICHAELA JAÉ RODRIGUEZ TO BE HONORED BY APLA HEALTH AT THE 42ND ANNUAL AIDS WALK LOS ANGELES ON OCTOBER 18, 2026

Joel Kim Booster to present Rodriguez with the Voice of Visibility Award, followed by an Opening Ceremony Performance from Singer/Songwriter David Archuleta
 

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — APLA Health announced today it will present its inaugural Voice of Visibility Award to honor actress and activist Michaela Jaé Rodriguez (Pose, Loot) on Sunday, October 18, 10:30 a.m. at the 42nd annual AIDS Walk Los Angeles, a fundraising event celebrating life, honoring those who have been lost, and taking action against HIV. On-screen co-star and advocate Joel Kim Booster will present Rodriguez with the honor during the AIDS Walk kick-off ceremony in West Hollywood Park, which will also feature a live performance from David Archuleta. Registration is now open at aidswalkla.org.

“There is still a cruel distance between what medicine can do and who actually gets to benefit from it. We know access to testing, treatment, and consistent care saves lives, yet our most marginalized communities, especially Black and Brown trans women, continue to bear a disproportionate burden,” said Rodriguez. “Our lives cannot become negotiable when the political climate changes or when supporting us becomes inconvenient. If you stand with this community, that commitment has to remain when it is hardest. We are not disposable, and we deserve the same chance to live fully, love freely, dream boldly, and grow old.”

As the first and oldest AIDS walk in the country, APLA Health presents its Voice of Visibility Award to Rodriguez for her commitment to HIV/AIDS awareness and destigmatization, and her advocacy for the transgender community. Rodriguez lives this year’s APLA Health AIDS Walk theme, “Defend Care, Demand Action,” a message aimed squarely at closing the gap between what medicine can now do and who can actually get it.

“Michaela Jaé is a powerful voice for the community,” said Craig E. Thompson, CEO of APLA Health. “Voices like hers keep HIV and equity in the public conversation at a time when it would be easy to look away. HIV is no longer the death sentence it once was, but that progress depends on people being able to afford testing, treatment, and ongoing care.”

Rodriguez won a Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama Series for Pose, becoming the first openly transgender actress to win the award, and was the first trans woman nominated for a Primetime Emmy in a leading acting category, also for Pose. She was also honored with GLAAD’s Stephen F. Kolzak Award and named The Advocate’s Person of the Year for her work promoting LGBTQ+ acceptance and HIV/AIDS awareness.

This year’s sponsors of APLA Health’s AIDS Walk Los Angeles 2026 include Premier Sponsor Paul Hastings; Grand Sponsors ABC 7, Gilead, and Paramount; Principal Sponsors Anthem, City of West Hollywood, ViiV Healthcare, Latham & Watkins, and NuvemRx; Major Sponsors Albertsons and Starbucks; Supporting Sponsors City National Bank, Baldwin Hills Investors, Ltd., and The Abbey; and Event Sponsors Amgen, Decron, Lionsgate, Eddie’s Pharmacy, KPMG, Queer Industry Night, Enterprise Mobility, Jeni’s Ice Creams, Keck Medicine of USC, and Room & Board Home Furnishings.
