Who uses it: Hospitals, clinics, diagnostic centres and nursing homes.

- Purchase of consumables is not controlled.
- Waste registers are kept on paper.
What the company gains
- Pharmacy and consumable stock controlled.
- Purchase against approval.
- Payroll for shift staff.
Numbers to watch
- Pharmacy stock near expiry
- Consumables cost per patient
Government rules to follow
