The prescription for success
With RFID, a healthcare distributor MBA Grupo takes a scalpel to critical business processes.
BACKGROUND
With RFID, healthcare distributor MBA Grupo has introduced effective therapy for critical business processes.
CHALLENGE The company set out to reduce waste from its manufacturing and distribution processes, improving the speed and accuracy with which vital products are supplied to customers.
SOLUTION MBA Grupo tested the effectiveness of RFID, tagging and tracking 300,000 items representing 5,700 different references and 48 groups. After verifying that RFID worked with a diverse range of product types, materials and packaging, MBA Grupo implemented the technology throughout its supply chain.
SUCCESS While RFID technology provides MBA Grupo with significant operational benefits, it also improves customer service by enabling hospitals to verify inventory levels, automatically trigger product replenishment and monitor expiration dates for sterile products.
