关于客户
The customer is a Fortune 500 company that operates in the healthcare and pharmaceuticals industry. It is a multinational medical device, pharmaceutical, and consumer packaged goods manufacturer. The company is based in the United States and has more than 275 operating companies in over 60 countries. It employs approximately 128,000 people. The company has been relying on webMethods for reliable Business Process Management (BPM) and integration since 2001. The company's product approval process requires collaboration with many different stakeholders throughout the company and is comprised of numerous sub-processes carried out by disparate systems. In larger companies, the sheer volume of new products in the pipeline adds even more complexity.
挑战
The Fortune 500 company, a multinational medical device, pharmaceutical and consumer packaged goods manufacturer, was facing challenges with its Approval for Product Release (APR) process. The process was outdated, paper-based, and relied on disparate systems, making it difficult to streamline and benchmark across products and countries. The old process took up to two years to complete and required stakeholders to write thousands of emails back and forth for a single product approval. With email-based collaboration, it was nearly impossible to determine who was working on the document or if additional changes had been made since the last email was sent. When there are potentially 50 different people who might have to make adjustments to a single document, duplicate work was almost inevitable.
解决方案
The company implemented a suite of webMethods solutions, including My webMethods Server, webMethods Business Process Management Suite, webMethods Composite Application Framework, webMethods Content Service Platform, and webMethods Integration Server. These solutions provided a fully integrated BPM solution, optimizing processes to be both thorough and efficient. The new solution allows stakeholders to access the same living document from a unified platform so that everyone is literally on the same page, regardless of region or department. From there it’s also possible to see a log of who made what changes and when. This completely removes the uncertainty associated with email-based collaboration. The new platform also has additional workflow management features that help employees prioritize tasks based on remaining workload and relative deadlines.

Case Study
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.
