Difficulty locating equipment and workstations in real time
As the first pilot site of RIOH Inc., this institution aims to track equipment movements within the hospital in real time, particularly those circulating between departments and sent to Biomedical Engineering (GBM) for maintenance or repair. The goal is to gain better visibility over the equipment inventory in order to optimize management, prevent losses, and reduce unnecessary purchases of often costly equipment.
As part of the DSN project, the institution also seeks to integrate our software with EPIC to locate employee workstations, thereby improving organization and the efficiency of internal operations.
