RLDatix, through its acquisition of Allocate Software, provides workforce management and governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) software solutions tailored for the healthcare sector. The company's offerings are designed to help healthcare organizations manage staffing, ensure patient safety, and maintain regulatory compliance. Allocate Software was founded in 1991 by Ian Bowles. Over the years, it grew to become a significant provider of workforce management software in the UK's National Health Service (NHS), with its solutions used by all NHS trusts.

In 2018, Allocate Software was acquired by Vista Equity Partners, and in 2021, it was subsequently acquired by RLDatix, a US-based GRC software provider. This acquisition combined Allocate's workforce management capabilities with RLDatix's GRC platform, aiming to create a comprehensive solution for healthcare operations that links staffing decisions directly to patient safety and quality of care outcomes. The combined entity operates under the RLDatix brand, serving a global client base in the healthcare industry. Their products, such as HealthRoster and HealthMedics, help to schedule staff, manage temporary workers, and oversee medical rostering, contributing to improved operational efficiency and patient care.
