DALLAS– Curvo and BroadJump, two healthcare data and supply chain technology companies, announced they have merged to form a unified organization focused on transforming how hospitals and health systems manage purchasing decisions. Backed by healthcare IT investor Hughes & Company, the combined company aims to deliver an end-to-end platform to manage all non-labor spend across the $600 billion healthcare supply chain market.

By integrating their technologies and data, the organization will provide hospitals, health systems, regional purchasing collaboratives, and MedTech partners with deeper insights, faster sourcing, and scalable collaboration. The platform is expected to launch with access to roughly 40 percent of the market’s data on day one, giving customers a comprehensive view of opportunities to reduce costs, minimize clinical variation, and improve outcomes.

“We believe the healthcare supply chain’s opportunity to reduce patient costs and improve quality of care is bigger than ever,” said Andy Perry, CEO of Curvo, who will continue as CEO of the combined company. “By uniting our technologies and talent, we aim to create a next-generation platform that brings all non-labor spend into one seamless experience.”

“Joining forces with Curvo allows us to scale our vision and bring even more value to healthcare providers to help them make better, clinically integrated purchasing decisions,” added Dan DeTorrice, president of BroadJump, who will serve as president of the new organization.

Travis Hughes, managing partner and founder of Hughes & Company, said, “We are thrilled to make this investment, bringing together two innovators in the healthcare supply chain space. By combining their complementary strengths, we see tremendous opportunity to accelerate growth, enhance customer value, and deliver meaningful impact across the industry.”

The combined company will maintain continuity for existing customers of both Curvo and BroadJump, while expanding datasets, tools, and functionality. With Hughes & Company’s investment, Travis Hughes, Naile Kovuk, and Ken Manning will join the board alongside industry executives Jeff Wood and Kent Parker.

Hughes & Company was advised by Cooley LLP on the transaction. Piper Sandler advised Curvo, and AGC Partners advised BroadJump.
