CUF uses Nextbitt platform to improve Medical Equipment Management
Real-Time Monitoring of Medical Equipment
CUF realized that there were major difficulties in monitoring medical equipment within the units. One of the problems encountered was asset tracking, which causes problems such as:
- A lot of time spent looking for equipment for day-to-day use or for maintenance and audits;
- A great deal of effort and a high number of errors in inventory processes;
- Lack of information on the utilization/availability rate of equipment, which can result in errors in the replacement and purchase process.
The pandemic, the result of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (Covid 19), has deepened this difficulty, posing an additional challenge.
CUF has started using Nextbitt for all its medical equipment maintenance management. The platform is used intensively by around 1,400 service requesters. The mobile app helps all technicians with corrective and preventive maintenance tasks as well as inspections.
Smart Tags
When placed on assets, they allow all information to be collected quickly and efficiently.
RTLS
With the use of the Real Time Location System, CUF has an immediate idea of the location of assets and their history.
Integration
Nextbitt ensured the smooth integration of the georeferencing systems into CUF's asset management platform and EAM system.
Monitoring SLAs
By always knowing where the assets are, you can keep track of all interventions. The platform automatically monitors the level of compliance with contracted SLAs.
More efficient operation:
Reduced search times for infusion pumps, stretchers, wheelchairs, etc.
Data Centralization:
Automatic inventory with georeferencing.
Informed Purchasing Decisions:
Analysis of equipment movements to size stock and make informed purchasing decisions.
Error and theft prevention:
Receiving alerts when an asset leaves a predetermined zone, preventing errors and theft.

"With the Nextbitt platform, analysis and response times have improved considerably, and we know that 'time is money'.
In addition, today 100% of our preventive maintenance is scheduled automatically, which ensures efficiency and total control."

"On the Nextbitt platform we monitor everything from water and energy consumption to air quality.
Large amounts of water are consumed in the hemodialysis process. The platform makes it possible to adjust the use of resources to needs, ensuring informed and actionable decisions based on various environmental metrics."

"Nextbitt is a reference partner for Microsoft, in a relationship of mutual trust and joint success over the last decade. Aligning the development of Nextbitt solutions with the evolution of the Azure platform, including the introduction of Artificial Intelligence, enhances our ability to respond to our customers' needs. In the short term, the next step will be to accompany the internationalization process, including making Nextbitt available on the marketplace."

"Given the reality and universe of the bank's facilities, it has a significant impact on the bank's operational footprint and on reducing energy costs."
Bruno Jorge
Head of Facilities Banco BPI
“On the Nextbitt platform we have all resources digitized, thus being able to monitor and maintain them, and systematize all processes and maintenance needs requested by our internal customers. This way we can reduce waiting times for requested interventions. This naturally reduces our costs, as we need shorter teams.”
Flávio Ferreira
Facilities & Maintenance Manager
"Engineering and maintenance in the hospital environment increasingly requires an effort to plan, record and control activity, which is only possible with a solid management platform. Nextbitt has enabled us, in a multidisciplinary and multi-site context, to manage all existing processes - inspections, preventive and corrective maintenance, calibrations, audits, among others - and also to develop innovative IoT solutions which, in a partnership logic, guarantee continuous improvement and have prepared the future of asset management."
André Vieira d'Almeida

"The need to manage a large asset portfolio, very diversified and spread across the country, meant that we had to adopt a platform with a proven track record in the stable market, which would give us the guarantee of commitment, but also the necessary adaptability to CTT's specificities. Nextbitt was that solution."

"Using the Nextbitt platform allows us to keep track of our portfolio of buildings and assets in an integrated and structured way. It is in this cloud-based environment that we manage requests for corrective action and the needs of our employees in the field of building management and services, allowing the various stages of the resolution process to be monitored online by the respective parties (requester, service providers and management team). The entire plan of preventive activities and audits is also centrally controlled on this platform. This is an essential tool for any Facility Manager."

"Through Nextbitt's energy management system we estimate 5% average annual savings in electricity, which given the reality and the bank's universe of facilities, has a significant weight in the bank's operational footprint and in reducing energy costs."
