Statistical Solutions

Statistical Solutions is a developer and distributor of statistical software mainly in the niche clinical trials market. The origins of this company can be traced to 1984 with the establishment of a company called BMDP statistical software, a Los Angeles based company with a European subsidiary based in Cork, Ireland. BMDP launched the very first statistical software package, named after the company; designed for use by general as opposed to niche markets. In exchange for government funding BMDP made the algorithms behind its software package available to the public domain. Mary Byrne who would later become the CEO and managing director of Statistical Solutions, lead a buyout of the European subsidiary in 1995. Thus the former subsidiary became an independent Irish firm by the name of Statistical Solutions.
