Problem Statement
There are divides within the ecosystem of the hospital when is comes to supply chain and nursing. Supply chain has created structures that rely on predictions and use outdated technology to relay inventory information to other departments. In addition nursing staff are working at a fast pace, and create solutions that can disrupt supply chain’s methods. This creates tension between the two departments and slows down hospital operations and patient care.
Hypothesis
If inventory tracking is established in a way that promotes communication and the flow of information then nursing staff will be able to quickly find products and supply chain will not be forced to rely on predictions. This will result in closing the gap between supply chain and nursing, and create mr efficient patient care.
