Strategic competence
“This acquisition allows us to leverage DNV’s good reputation in the area of quality management systems certification and risk management with TUVHS’ nationwide healthcare experience and US network of resources. TUVHS has seven employees, and with this acquisition we secure strategic competence and an important portfolio that within a few years will help us generate a considerable business volume within the healthcare sector,” says Yehuda Dror, President and CEO of DNV Healthcare Inc.
Innovative healthcare thinking
“We are confident that by working with the multi-skilled team from the former TUVHS organisation and DNV’s own organisation, we will succeed in providing the US hospital market with an effective accreditation alternative,” says Yehuda Dror.
