At this year’s 2018 AAMI Conference & Expo, PartsSource introduced its new mobile application and text messaging notifications to help increase the speed and efficiency of placing an order in the hospital supply chain. With an increasingly mobile workforce, the PartsSource Mobile App with more than a dozen new features, plus the addition of text message notifications, enables clinical engineering teams to initiate the often complex and extensive ordering process for medical replacement parts.
Customers can access the entire PartsSource catalog via their mobile device, and quickly order a part while on the go, or take a photo right inside the PartsSource mobile app to send a quote request to a team of sourcing professionals. Approving managers can then receive push notifications and/or text notifications when a quote is ready for approval and authorize a purchase with a single touch within the mobile app.
“Complex procurement processes with many steps and required approvals can impede decision making, equipment uptime and patient care in a hospital,” said Mark Tomasetti, chief technology officer for PartsSource. “PartsSource now allows a technician to immediately initiate the ordering process on the go from the site of a repair, and empowers a manager to quickly approve an order and speed-up the process for an increasingly mobile workforce.”
The PartsSource mobile app allows instant mobile access to its marketplace including 4 million medical replacement parts and services and related order information. The PartsSource mobile application is available for download at The Apple App Store and Google Play store. Customers can also opt-in to receive text messaging, and can choose their preferred frequency for receiving text notifications.
