Approach to Healthcare
Ingenica is playing a key role in streamlining healthcare systems and processes, with the creation of pioneering technology that is improving efficiency and giving valuable time back to clinical care.
We understand that operational efficiency is vital to delivering world-class patient care, and only by truly understanding our clients’ challenges have we been able to design bespoke software solutions that deliver on this. Priding ourselves on solving healthcare’s toughest inventory management challenges, we collaborate with NHS Trusts, private hospitals, and suppliers alike, to deliver solutions that align with their unique needs whilst exceeding strict regulatory standards. Our focus is transforming manual, laborious paper-based systems into streamlined, sustainable, automated workflows – saving time, saving money, and saving valuable staff resource. By optimising staff resource, we effectively release more clinicians back to the front line improving their morale by enabling them to improve patient outcomes, and experience.
Impact of Products/Services
Ingenica Solutions is working with Trusts across the NHS with our market leading Inventory Management Solution already delivering tangible budget savings and freeing up essential time to patient care.
Our ‘Atticus’ software addresses critical inefficiencies in healthcare inventory and supply chain management. By providing perpetual inventory management and patient-level costing capabilities, hospitals can track and manage their resources with unparalleled accuracy. The impact of this can be witnessed in the various case studies available on our website.
Likewise, our new ‘Loan Kit App’ addresses the notoriously challenging issue of orthopaedic loan kit management. The App replaces the limitations of current systems – email trails, whiteboards, and paper-based diaries, with an automated, digitised workflow that provides full track and traceability from point of ordering through to settled PO. This digital transformation of the loan kit management process optimises theatre capacity and clinician resource – resulting in reduced wait lists, reduced cancelled surgeries and reduced cost.
Innovation
Ingenica has streamlined hospital inventory systems with the first GS1 certified solution for inventory management in healthcare. Our system is already reducing waste, freeing up funds to reinvest in frontline services, and enhancing patient care across NHS Trusts nationwide.
We are constantly collaborating with the NHS to identify ways we can support streamlining workflows even further. In response to the growing demand for streamlined and efficient loan kit management in the medical field, we recently introduced our newest, innovative ground-breaking app, Ingenica Loan. Our innovative Loan Kit App exemplifies this, offering a groundbreaking approach to managing orthopaedic loan kits – a historically challenging area for hospitals and suppliers alike. This app provides real-time tracking, automated workflows, and rich data via an analytics dashboard to enable Trusts to reduce inefficiencies, make informed kit procurement decisions and automatically resolve PO disputes. Essentially standardising the loan kit management process by bringing all NHS Trusts, and all orthopaedic loan kit suppliers onto the same intuitive software platform. This cutting-edge solution is revolutionising the way orthopaedic professionals and healthcare institutions manage loan kits, optimising operations, reducing costs, and enhancing patient care.
In addition, we are excited to be working on other standout innovations such as a Proof of Delivery app, RFID app with more apps in the pipeline designed not only to solve existing problems but to anticipate future needs, ensuring healthcare providers remain agile in an ever-changing healthcare landscape.
Future Direction
We believe that the key to a more efficient healthcare system lies in leveraging technology – implementing intuitive, time-saving software systems and applications to automate, analyse and anticipate needs. We have seen tangible impact in the NHS Trusts where our technology has been deployed and will continue to provide new innovation.
We are committed to expanding our impact across the UK, and beyond. Our immediate focus is on scaling the adoption of our Loan Kit App nationwide, with plans for the app to track other specialties too, such as breast implants, trochlear and ENT. We will continue to deepen our partnerships with the NHS, private hospital groups, and international healthcare providers – revolutionising efficiencies in global healthcare. We are also exploring advancements in artificial intelligence to further optimize resource management and enhance decision-making for our clients. Ingenica’s ultimate vision is to set the gold standard in healthcare supply chain management, supporting healthcare staff throughout the world to provide the best possible patient outcomes, and experience.
