BlueBin
BlueBin automates the Kanban method for hospital supply management, ensuring that clinicians always have the right amount of supplies. Color-coded bins hold items, and staff scan barcodes when one bin is empty, triggering a restock request. BlueBin’s software aggregates these scans and generates daily pick lists for supply chain staff. It also tracks usage trends over time, optimizing bin counts. With streamlined restocking, hospital floors remain adequately supplied, reducing hoarding and expired products. BlueBin’s real-time approach can cut overhead by making supply systems more efficient.
