Healthcare · EMEA · 14 acute sites
From 22 minutes of hunting to under 30 seconds to find any pump.
A top-10 EU hospital group across 14 acute sites was losing clinical time and over-renting equipment it already owned.
The challenge
What they were up against.
22 minutes lost per shift
Nurses spent around 22 minutes a shift hunting for infusion pumps, telemetry units and wheelchairs.
Rental spend was climbing
Owned equipment could not be found, so the group rented duplicates to cover the gap.
No data for biomed PM
Preventive-maintenance compliance suffered with no reliable location or utilisation data.
Our approach
Vendor-neutral, outcome-led.
We ran a vendor-neutral evaluation across BLE 5.x AoA and UWB, scored against the clinical environment and accuracy budget, then designed anchor placement around real clinical workflow. Delivery was phased across 14 sites with integration to Epic and the biomed CMMS.
How we solved it
What we delivered.
- BLE 5.x AoA locating across 8,400 tagged assets
- Integration with Epic for ED bed-state events and the biomed CMMS
- A nurse-facing find-a-pump app plus utilisation analytics for biomed
