A strategic challenge: location, connectivity, and efficiency
Healthcare centers face major challenges in managing their equipment: frequent losses, significant time spent searching, and a lack of traceability of their movements. These inefficiencies lead to reduced productivity and make daily operations more difficult for healthcare staff.
As part of a project in collaboration with ITI, these institutions also aimed to modernize their infrastructure by deploying a new Wi-Fi network. However, they were looking for a solution that could easily integrate with existing technologies, without requiring complex work or disrupting ongoing operations.
Reinventing medical equipment management
To address these challenges, we are deploying a tracking system in two hospitals, 15 CHSLDs, and one university institute. This solution enables:
Thanks to this solution, healthcare institutions have a powerful tool to optimize equipment management, improve operational efficiency, and enable teams to focus on what truly matters: patient care.
