关于客户
本案例的客户是非洲科特迪瓦第二大城市布瓦凯的一家医院——布卢利医疗中心。该医院专门治疗“布鲁里溃疡”,这是一种由分枝杆菌溃疡引起的皮肤和软组织感染,这种感染在热带和亚热带气候国家相当常见。该医院由瓦特洛基金会 (Vatelot Foundation) 于 2013 年建造,该基金会是一家经卢森堡外交部及其发展合作部认证的非营利性非政府组织。该建筑项目由因斯布鲁克大学的两名硕士生发起,他们筹集了慈善捐款和自己的积蓄,设计和建造了一个工作空间,用于为医院的患者建造和使用假肢。
挑战
Digital Architects 是一家总部位于奥地利的建筑公司,其任务是为科特迪瓦布瓦凯医院的中心医疗外科中心 de l'Ulcère de Buruli 的假肢实验室建造一个简单、坚固且可持续的屋顶结构。该医院专门治疗布鲁里溃疡,这是一种常见于热带和亚热带气候的皮肤和软组织感染。该项目由因斯布鲁克大学的两名硕士生发起,他们筹集了慈善捐款和自己的积蓄,设计和建造了一个工作空间,用于为医院的患者建造和使用假肢。该项目是与 Vatelot 基金会协调的,Vatelot 基金会是一家非营利组织,于 2013 年建造了该医院。面临的挑战是在极其紧张的预算内运作并使用现有材料来建造实验室的屋顶。该团队需要计算小型 L 形型钢的使用情况,以实现简单而坚固的设置,并且不需要立即进行完全组装。
解决方案
为了克服这一挑战,数字架构师决定探索现有标准范围之外的可能性和基于经验的方法。他们选择从完整的装配模型开始来测试和比较标准方法,同时评估更快方法的任何局限性。该团队使用 Altair SimSolid,这是一款专为快速设计反馈而开发的结构分析软件。 SimSolid 消除了几何简化和网格划分,这是传统 FEA 中完成的两项最耗时且需要大量专业知识的任务。这样就可以在几分钟内分析功能齐全的 CAD 装配体,而无需进行网格划分。凭借其分析传统 FEA 无法实现的复杂零件和大型装配体的能力,该团队能够进行非常快速的完整装配测试。测试结果显示,全装配模型方法的效率稍高,这使他们能够修改型材厚度,评估在不影响强度的情况下可以在哪里减少/变薄,从而节省团队资金。

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.
