Relamatrix Group successfully assists Morrison Specialty Management to secure multi-million dollar contract with Florida Division of Tenet Healthcare.

NEW YORK, NY / January 25 / PRNEWSWIRE / -- Relamatrix Group, a global healthcare business development consulting firm based in Manhattan, is pleased to announce that its client, Morrison Management Specialists, Inc., has executed an agreement to manage the nutrition services of twelve Florida hospitals in the Tenet Healthcare System. Relamatrix Group assisted in the facilitation of this transaction.

Morrison is the largest independent company specializing in providing food, nutrition and dining services to the healthcare and senior living industries. The Atlanta-based company serves some of the largest and most prominent integrated health systems, hospitals, nursing homes and retirement facilities in the United States.

Many leading vendors in the healthcare industry experience difficulty in establishing high-level dialogues with new clients due to high senior executive turnover and the rapid pace of health system consolidation and closure. The most effective and productive business development program is one built on a foundation of existing personal relationships. The Relamatrix Group’s Corporate Ambassador Program combines this principle with a sophisticated management approach to identify and cultivate new business opportunities only at the decision-maker level.

Morrison’s nutrition management agreement with Tenet Healthcare covers a total of 58 acute care hospitals in 12 states with an estimated value at over $100 million.
