Our Hospital Management solution operates on the cloud, integrating all essential information needed for hospital operations, and reducing reliance on paper for the hospital’s carbon footprint
SMS Tech (Smart Manufacturing Solutions Technology) was established in 2021 through a partnership between SMS (Smart Manufacturing Solutions Ltd) and Scale Digital Ventures.
The team at SMS comprises of experts in Quality, Compliance, Health & Safety, Operations while Scale Digital Ventures brings a wealth of experience in software innovation, delivery, and support. This collaboration ensured that all essential areas of expertise were covered for the development and launch of our Shop Floor Management system.
Inspiration from the maritime sector
Originally designed tested and inplace for the Manufacturing sector to demonstrate compliance and real-time tracking of key performance indicators (KPIs), SMS Tech was then invited to Maritime 2050 due to the approach from the maritime sector to look at solutions available outside of the current sector.
Our solution gained recognition at an innovation event for the Maritime sector hosted at the Port of Tyne in 2021. Following a successful “Dragons’ Den” style pitch, we began beta testing the platform’s capabilities in another sector – with additional compliance requirements from the Department of Trade and over 250 users. After three months, the product’s ease of use and traceability proved to be a resounding success, prompting us to explore other sectors, including the public sector.
This led to a successful demonstration and tender process at the Black Country Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, where our solution is currently being implemented to control all lead nurses’ auditable tasks and facilities management.
Improving the efficiency and overall performance of hospitals
At SMS Tech, we understand that hospitals handle a massive amount of data daily, but the flow of information often becomes fragmented and halted within various departments and staff. To address this challenge, our solution ensures the uninterrupted flow of data, providing full traceability and ensuring the fulfillment of key performance indicators (KPIs) with real time data analytics.
Our solution is dedicated to improving the efficiency and overall performance of hospitals by reducing the time spent on non-value-added tasks. By integrating and managing all critical information required for hospital operations, our solution eliminates the reliance on paper-based tasks, reducing environmental waste and the hospital’s carbon footprint whilst also improving the Morale of the team by removing duplication and administrative tasks.
Benefits to our Hospital Management solution
Cloud-based Solutions
Our Hospital Management solution operates on the cloud, enabling easy access to all essential documents required on a day-to-day basis. The system’s fully customizable forms can be tailored to suit the unique needs of each hospital and ensuring control of documents in circulation (no more old level documents saved locally), ensuring the software works around the hospital rather than the other way around. Functional on any hardawre – Mobile devices such as phones,tablets and PC’s/Laptops ensuring no large capital spend for uncommon hardware.
Our Shop Floor Management solution
This solution ensures the continuous flow of data, allowing for the achievement of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
