Equipment moves, that is why it often has wheels. It is especially important in hospitals to know what equipment is on hand. You can receive alerts when an item runs low or set your account to generate purchase orders whenever you reach predetermined reorder points. With SOS Inventory, you’ll always know when it’s time to reorder. SOS Inventory has many medical industry customers, and medical equipment inventory customers, who rely on SOS to be the supply chain partner concerned with inventory levels.
Medical workers are highly trained professionals who shouldn’t need to be supply chain specialists as well. Medical companies need a great medical inventory management system, to ensure they hold sufficient stock but not too much. The understandable reaction is to order more than you need to be safe, but this ties up much-needed capital, and risks stock write-offs as expiry dates come around. In the medical world, shortages of inventory can cost lives. Your staff is trained to take good care of patients, providing medical advice and attention that should never be compromised by a shortage or the inability to readily view what devices, equipment or medication is available at hand.
When treating patients or handling emergencies, depleting your medical supply inventory could pose serious negative consequences to a patient’s health.
