NDSC announces new offices in downtown Madison

National Decision Support Company (NDSC) announced this week its plan to open offices in downtown Madison, Wis.

“With over 2 million monthly transactions being generated by more than 100 health systems using our flagship solution ACR Select, and our recent expansion into new clinical areas through CareSelect, our development needs are growing rapidly,” Michael Mardini, NDSC CEO, said in a prepared statement. “By creating a dedicated R&D headquarters in Madison, we're able to attract top talent and create the collaborative atmosphere required for an agile development team.”

“We selected Madison to capitalize on its reputation as a technology startup hub and access to qualified talent,” Tom Conti, NDSC vice president of product and technology, said in the same statement.  

NDSC officially launched CareSelect back in February.
