Problem
Healthcare providers face challenges in procuring medical supplies and equipment due to fragmented supply chains, limited price transparency, and inefficient inventory management, leading to increased costs and operational inefficiencies. They also struggle with managing the lifecycle of medical equipment, including maintenance, repair, and disposal. Furthermore, unpredictable consumption patterns lead to overstocking or understocking of supplies, resulting in capital blockage or medical case cancellations.
