DATA GROUP INVENTORY MANAGEMENT (DGIM)

In the UK, as the NHS treats a million patients every 36 hours (2018) and the private sector involvement encompasses an increasingly complex range of activities, the healthcare industry faces unique challenges prioritising financial sustainability, care delivery, patient centricity, digital transformation and regulatory compliance.

Healthcare locations across the UK have an overwhelming amount of equipment and medical inventory needing to be tracked and managed and for every healthcare worker, there are extensive numbers of tools and devices to help them deliver the best in patient care. Once seen as a finance function, Inventory Management has evolved to become a critical part of how companies operate. The common challenge for today’s companies is how to accurately keep track of its inventory accumulated across the organisation.

Basic static list inventory information in the form of receipts and serial numbers are now insufficient when a company needs to produce reliable up to date inventory information, including its location, its purchase history and written down value. In addition, various departments within the company will interact with the same inventory but for different reasons – Finance, Procurement, Operations, Health and Safety and IT. Without reliable records, companies also risk being held to task about their duty of care, proof of ownership and of course, unforeseen events such as a workplace incident risks satisfying insurance company requirements in the event of a claim.

Companies have limited resources – financial, labour and time. The DATA GROUP INVENTORY MANAGEMENT (DGIM) system recognises these constraints and achieves ROI in all these areas, optimising your company’s operations, avoiding the duplication of processes and preventing any hidden inventory the company has paid for being misplaced or underutilised.

The DGIM system for the healthcare industry provides your company with all the information you need to know about your inventory and generates customisable reports when required and provides for audits. We understand how your industry operates and our healthcare inventory tracking system is designed and built specifically for you. Whatever form of growth your company is aiming to achieve, the underlying structure of the business can make or break a business. The DGIM system lays the foundations on which to develop a successful business – the infrastructure to achieve maximum optimisation.
