The Challenge: Tracking Medical Supplies Across Procedures and Offices
-
Complex Inventory Needs: Needed to track inventory from receiving to usage per patient/procedure.
Items had expiration dates and batch/lot numbers, requiring tight control. -
Manual Inefficiencies: Human error and redundant data entry slowed processes.
The outdated system couldn’t generate reports or handle varied barcode formats. - Compliance and Reporting Gaps:Required detailed insights into costs, inventory levels, and item history.
"Products change every day and the System program keeps it easy. The system can use the same stock item with different suppliers."
– Fernando Lebron, SFVA Employee
