OUR EXPERIENCE
At Sigma Solutions, our experience is grounded in decades of real-world involvement in Malaysia's evolving healthcare landscape. Sigma Solutions' foundation rests on over 20 years of senior-level expertise in hospital operations, healthcare planning, quality management, and strategic development. Impactful engagements across public and private healthcare institutions, medical centres, specialist clinics, and infrastructure developers shape our journey.
In addition to local engagements, Sigma Solutions has also been sought after by established consulting and investment firms based in Hong Kong, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Indonesia. These collaborations have included the preparation of high-level market insights and strategic reports focused on Malaysia’s public and private healthcare spectrum.
