Blog post: The little-known history of the first ‘bullseye’ barcode
Tuesday, August 15, 2017 - 11:04
Whilst we might take the humble barcode for granted today, the symbol is the result of decades of innovation and investment. The idea was first born 80 years ago by Bernard Silver and inventor friend Norman Joseph Woodland who patented the original concept of a ‘bullseye’ shaped machine-readable code in 1949. However, it wasn’t until 3 decades later that the first linear barcode, developed by a team of IBM engineers, was scanned at a supermarket check-out.

Asset intelligence technology is poised to gain traction in the global healthcare and emergency services industry sectors after recent studies found missing mobile equipment could cost Australian hospitals AU$64M+ a year, even before accounting for the lost time nurses spend searching for assets [estimated at AU$957K+ per day in salaries] and the resulting impact on patient safety.

Blog post: Improve safety and reduce recall cost with unique device identification
Tuesday, April 4, 2017 - 17:12
Recent recalls and product contamination warnings in the medical industry have highlighted the importance of comprehensive and accurate tracking of devices throughout the healthcare supply chain – from manufacture, through use, to end-of-life. Today, a major barrier to successful medical device visibility and traceability is the lack of a unique device identification system. There is still nothing to prevent manufacturers, distributors and other providers using the same identifiers for different things, making device recalls unnecessarily time consuming, laborious and costly.

Blog post: Collaborative data management platforms set to transform enterprise asset management
Tuesday, March 14, 2017 - 17:10
As an asset owner/operator, one of your biggest headaches is when something goes offline unexpectedly.

Furthermore, what is the confidence level that the data is complete, accurate and up-to-date, right now, as you are working to fix the problem? Today’s blog explores the capabilities of collaborative asset intelligence platforms and the benefits of moving your organisation towards a program of continual data improvement.
