Jönköping County, a healthcare region in Sweden, lowers inventory and increases service levels with EazyStock
The best thing about EazyStock is that we can now be sure that we’re stocking the right items, which positively affects our stock value and turnover rate. The inventory classification capabilities are superb, as are the forecasts and reports.
Jönköping County is one of 21 regions in Sweden that is responsible for the country’s healthcare, growth and development. The Department of Materials Supply stocks and distributes consumables to all healthcare organisations and providers within the region.
✓ Challenge: To optimise stock levels & automate purchasing
With service levels being critical to Jönköping County, a tool was needed that not only optimised stock levels, but also automated purchasing and replenishment to move away from time-consuming, manual processes.
✓ Solution: Optimal purchasing quantities
EazyStock was chosen to plug into their Jeeves ERP system. The Jönköping County team now let EazyStock calculate optimal purchasing quantities so they can deliver the highest possible level of service to their customers.
“So far, the results have exceeded our expectations. We have seen that our excess stock has decreased and the orders for our suppliers are so much faster and easier to process.”
