FRAMINGHAM, Mass., August 25, 2026 – Resolute Software has been named a Gold Stevie® Award winner for Operational Excellence in the 23rd Annual International Business Awards®, recognizing the company’s work with SetPoint Medical on a mission-critical infrastructure migration completed with zero downtime and no disruption to clinical operations.
The International Business Awards are one of the world’s leading business awards programs. The 2026 competition received more than 3,400 nominations from organizations across 82 countries and territories.
Resolute Software’s winning submission centered on its work with SetPoint Medical, a California-based Class III medical device company developing implantable therapies for autoimmune diseases. SetPoint was conducting a five-year, FDA-regulated clinical trial with more than 240 active patients when its backend platform provider announced a permanent shutdown.
The supporting software infrastructure was essential to managing patient therapy and collecting clinical data. An interruption could have forced the clinical trial to end and delayed SetPoint’s FDA approval timeline by more than six months.
Resolute Software was brought in to migrate the complete backend environment under strict constraints: no code changes, zero downtime, full regulatory compliance, and a delivery timeline of less than eight weeks.
The team rebuilt and migrated the Kubernetes-based microservices system to a new single-tenant environment while maintaining exact functional equivalence across its APIs, endpoints, and dependencies. The migration was completed without disruption to clinicians or patients and met the required FDA validation and documentation requirements.
The project resulted in:
100% uptime throughout the migration and the following 18 months of operations
Zero user-reported incidents or disruptions
240+ patients maintaining uninterrupted therapy
More than six months of potential regulatory delay avoided
No interruption to the ongoing clinical trial
SetPoint Medical CTO Bill Calle described the transition as exceptionally smooth, noting that the migrated system remained functionally indistinguishable from the original environment.
“Winning Gold at the Stevie International Business Awards is a proud recognition of what operational excellence means to us at Resolute: delivering with precision and taking responsibility when the stakes are highest,” said Veli Pehlivanov, CTO of Resolute Software. “I’m especially proud that this award reflects the work of our engineering teams in supporting mission-critical healthcare systems, where reliability can have a direct impact on patients. This Gold award validates our belief that great engineering isn’t just about technology. It’s about being the partner clients can depend on when failure simply isn’t an option.”
The International Business Awards judges highlighted both the project's execution and its significance.
This is a remarkable example of operational excellence with no downtime or loss of capability, especially in a complex regulatory environment. Very impressive.
Another judge described the work as “a highly effective operational improvement initiative with clear business benefits and strong execution,” while a third called the result a “fabulous outcome” and congratulated Resolute Software on the achievement.
Beyond the migration itself, Resolute Software assumed operational responsibility for the infrastructure, security, and ongoing maintenance of the environment, allowing SetPoint Medical to remain focused on its device development and clinical outcomes.
The Gold Stevie® Award reflects Resolute Software’s broader approach to working with mission-critical and regulated systems, where modernization must account not only for technical performance but also for reliability, compliance, security, and continuity.
