The company is faced with an issue of instrument traceability. Because the entry system is manual, it is time consuming and error prone. Timely calibrations of the instruments is not done as there is no reminder for it. It is virtually impossible to remember the calibration due date for 300 instruments. This is hampering their overall TAT of production.
Barcode scanner-based Instrument issuance and receipt process reduced errors, saved time and gave real time visibility of all the instrument.
Due to email reminder automation, overall availability of instruments for their use increased as they were calibrated from time to time.
As right process was set for issuance and receipt, It led to greater accountability about right usage of the instrument and its return to the lab.
On-time availability of instruments significantly reduced the waiting time for instruments across multiple assembly shops.
