2 Fax: Fax: Fee-Based Consulting & Implementation Services Automated Supply Chain Solutions Fee-Based Consulting & Implementation Services Automated Supply Chain Solutions Par Analysis Tool StockBox RFID Solution Usage and Quota Data Processed through our Cart Optimization Database Acart sets an optimization tool that provides the appropriate balance between: In a 2-bin set-up, when the primary bin is empty, the RFID-enabled StockCard label is pulled from the cardholder on the front of the bin and dropped in the StockBox. Replenishment frequency. Value of stock at each cart. Highest service level, with service level being the top priority. A number of elements are considered in this collaborative process. A Restocking in Process card remains on the front of the bin. There is enough stock in secondary bin for routine use. (Items in the secondary bin are moved to primary bin.) Dropping the StockCard in StockBox triggers and sends an electronic notification - including the item quantity and location - To the ERP system. Items are picked and restocked as required. New stock is placed in the secondary bin. During the replenishment process the supply tech opens StockBox to retrieve the StockCards, presses the Restock button, and passes the StockCards over the control panel to update the database. When replenishment is completed, the StockCards are returned to their respective cardholders. Acart Implementation Services StockBox Acart will work with hospital staff to plan and load product into their supply location Elevated Cart design layout with stock locations. Grouping Considerations. Two Bin Layouts. Refurbishing existing equipment- upgraded to adhere to CSA standards. Cart Loading and Labeling. StockCards in Use StockBox in Use SmartCabinet Enclosed Cabinet RFID labels are placed on the item package or box, and the item s barcode is scanned to enroll it into the system. Enrolled items are ready for placement in the Smart Cabinet (an RFID tag identifies the user and unlocks the cabinet doors). Items are placed on the shelves with the RFID tags facing the rear of the cabinet. The cabinet doors are closed and the items are ready for use. The user opens the Smart Cabinet to remove the desired device. LogiTag software instantly records usage for seamless tracking and management. Reports manage products, status (expired or about to expire), procedure, user, distributor, invoice, and more. Communicates directly with ERP systems. Two Bin Products Categorized Supplies Loaded and Stocked by Acart Smart Cabinet

4 StockBox Lean, efficient inventory management system for medical supplies The LogiTag StockBox provides materials managers with a simple, highly efficient method to automate inventory management and reordering of medical supplies in any healthcare setting. The StockBox combines a two-bin lean Kanban configuration with advanced RFID technology and proprietary cloud-based software to collect reordering information from RFID-enabled stock cards, to run regular restocking reports, or to send automated restocking requests as they occur to hospital ERP systems. Restocking with StockBox Items are used as needed. When the quantity in the primary bin are used, the item has reached its restocking point. The RFID-enabled StockCard card is pulled from the cardholder on the front of the bin and dropped in StockBox. A Restocking in Process card remains on the front of the bin. Dropping the StockCard in StockBox triggers and sends an electronic notification - including the item quantity and location - to the materials manager or team. When restocking is in process, there is enough stock in secondary bin for routine use. (Items in the secondary bin are moved to primary bin.) Items are picked in central supply, distributed, and restocked as required. New stock is placed in the secondary bin. The materials management team opens StockBox to retrieve the StockCards, presses the Restock button, and passes the StockCards over the control panel to update the database. When replenishment is completed, the StockCards are returned to their respective cardholders.
