Lightfoot Solutions - The Left Shift Analytical & Intelligence Platform

The Left Shift Analytical and Intelligence Platform

With current pressures in the Healthcare Sector – the only way forward is to use a Left Shift Model. The need to understand how our population and patients interact and touch our Health and Social Care System is now greater than ever.

Our enterprise solution signalsfromnoise® (sfn) helps to support Systems within Healthcare and Commercial settings to strategise, plan, allocate resources and make operational decisions confidently allowing efficiencies and cost out to be realised.

Turning every challenge into a collaborative, data informed solution

This approach supports a time-based exploration of data, both backwards and forwards, through a single data model. This unique approach allows users to interrogate the restructured data and transform exploratory data analysis and analytics into predictive analytics.

Understanding the 'why' in data

The common use of performance dashboards tells us that we are failing to achieve the expected target, but they don’t tell us why we are failing to achieve the desired outcome. Being able to understand the contributory elements is key if we are going to improve flow and achieve the desired outcomes.

Discrete Event Simulation

sfn now includes a built-in discrete event simulation engine that lets health systems safely model change using real operational data. Powered by billions of patient events and enriched with population forecasts, it supports forward planning, demand projection and scenario testing without leaving the platform. Results are instantly visualised through SPC charts, revealing trends, constraints and likely impacts. Users can run counterfactuals to validate assumptions and test interventions without risk. Fully integrated into sfn’s scalable, auditable architecture, it enables rapid experimentation, supports investment decisions and provides a practical, data-driven way to plan capacity, improve flow and strengthen long-term service resilience.

Securing NHS Data – Powering NHS Insight

Health data drives decisions that save lives but only when it’s trusted, secure and available in the moments that matter. That’s where Lightfoot Solutions comes in.

Lightfoot Launch their 72-Hour Modelling Tool

Lightfoot Solutions is proud to introduce their 72-hour modelling tool – a new simulation capability within sfn, built to support NHS organisations as they prepare for the rollout of national clinical and operational standards for the first 72 hours of care.
