Healthcare institutions are continuously being challenged to manage inventories of medical supplies. These assets need to be maintained, monitored and tracked, and available when needed to support patient care. Relying on manual process such as Excel spreadsheets and other outdated tools to manage inventory is time consuming, inefficient and error prone. When healthcare workers have optimal workflows and medical supplies are completely secured and readily available, they have more time for bedside care - a key goal of a Smart Hospital.

Medical supplies managers are under growing pressure to lower costs without sacrificing quality of care. With limited storage space and time, they face logistical challenges that have the potential to negatively affect workflow and healthcare quality, such as obsolete/expired items taking up valuable space, overstock due to the U/M (Unit of Measure) & case quantity restrictions.

Nevertheless, the zero-stock strategy requires accuracy and visibility in supply chain management. Any imbalance between incoming and outgoing stock orders will lead directly to a stockout. Our ICMSMS simplifies and automates repetitive manual tasks performed within healthcare organizations in pursuit of a simple goal: achieve a more efficient and accurate supply chain process. The many benefits of software automation include streamlining inventory; minimizing waste; enabling timely, data-based decision-making; and reducing supply, labor and operational costs.
