In our June 23rd post we provided information about some of the healthcare businesses that rely on workers outside of the four walls.  Today I’d like to take a look at the ways that pharmaceutical and medical equipment suppliers are using mobile solutions to better serve their customers and increase efficiency.  With a mobile solution in place you can:

• Schedule drivers with Web-based order dispatching that is sent directly to their mobile device
• Assign and track the status of pickups and deliveries in real-time
• Dynamically dispatch the nearest courier
• Automatically capture and report mileage driven
• Export collected data to the back office for extensive reporting

In addition, the use of electronic forms reduces errors and enables:

• Bar code scanning of prescription number, part number and serial number
• Correct and complete deliveries validated against order line items
• Signature capture
• Image capture of damaged equipment

In our July 16th post we announced that DecisionPoint took part in the recent ESRI Showcase that focuses on GIS trends and integrated solutions.  Do you know what GIS is?  GIS, or a Geographic Information System, integrates hardware, software and data so users can capture, manage and analyze geographical information.  GIS technology can be integrated into enterprise information systems and is used in a variety of industries to improve processes.  A mobile solution with GIS technology enables businesses to:

• Effectively manage and schedule routes for fleets and field workers
• Track mobile assets in real-time
• Easily share information
• View maps, reports and charts on-the-go
