Emory poster preview

Overview

We designed a continuous-review inventory policy and a digitized parts catalog/dashboard for the Facilities stockroom (serving 600+ beds across 28 specialties). Targeted untracked items and stockouts delaying work-order completion and room availability.

Highlights

  • (Q,r) policy with safety stock for critical SKUs.
  • Barcode-based checkout and searchable parts catalog.
  • Dashboards for par levels, order queues, and usage trends.

Impact

  • Projected multi-million dollar annual savings through reduced downtime.
  • Higher stock accuracy and faster work-order cycle times.
