Define the outage scenario
Which systems are affected? What case and material information is available on the devices? These questions belong in the operating concept.
OR LOGISTICS IN PRACTICE
Hospital IT outage: keep material logistics running.
Digital OR logistics needs an operating concept for disruptions. MEDIC uses autonomous devices to keep supporting material workflows when central IT fails.
Redundancy in the working device.
Device autonomy is a central feature of MEDIC’s operating environment. Multiple scanners distribute redundancy across the deployed devices. Consight describes continuity for 48 hours or more. Which workflows remain available is defined against your configuration and the specific outage scenario.
How MEDIC supports the workflow
Maintain material workflows
Autonomous scanners support the agreed material workflows. A central IT outage should not automatically stop all material preparation.
Plan recovery
Return to normal operation, responsibilities and reconciliation of process data are also considered for your environment.
Practical questions
Does MEDIC safeguard the entire OR operation?
MEDIC addresses material logistics. Power, medical equipment, clinical systems and staffing remain additional requirements for OR operations. The outage calculator models a configurable risk scenario, not guaranteed annual savings.
How would this work in your hospital?
In a free workshop, we examine your current workflow, handovers between the OR and logistics, and existing systems. Together, we identify where MEDIC can help.
