Modules / Security, Offline & Multi-site

Offline-first platform

Work offline. Keep data moving without the internet.

Connectivity should never dictate when your team can work or share information. PIMS is built for offline-first operation, so teams can record transactions, manage stock, and exchange data between locations without an internet connection. Sync with the cloud when connectivity returns.

Offline-first capabilities

Keep operations running and data moving

Full operations, without internet

Record transactions, manage inventory, and continue daily work without an internet connection.

Exchange data through PIMS files

Transfer shipment records between offline locations using PIMS files, allowing receiving teams to import the details without entering them again.

Let shipment data travel with the stock

Send printed QR codes with deliveries so receiving teams can scan shipment details into PIMS, even without internet.

20,000 transactions. Just 1 MB.

A bandwidth-conscious synchronization algorithm keeps data transfers compact, making limited or expensive connectivity go further.

Reconnect and sync

Sync records captured offline when connectivity returns, bringing local operations and central visibility back into alignment.

One sync module, both destinations

Use a single synchronization module to share data with other PIMS instances and the data warehouse, supporting daily coordination and consolidated reporting.

The challenge

The connection drops. The work doesn’t stop.

Deliveries arrive, stock moves, and patients need care, even without internet. When systems depend on a connection, teams are left bridging the gaps.

One transaction, recorded twice

Teams switch to paper during outages, then re-enter records when service returns. The extra work creates backlogs and opportunities for missed or incorrect entries.

Stock arrives. Its data doesn’t.

Without a way to exchange shipment records offline, receiving teams must rebuild information already captured at dispatch, slowing receipt and making discrepancies harder to resolve.

A connection isn’t always enough

Low bandwidth and expensive data can make large transfers impractical. Records remain scattered across locations, leaving central teams with an incomplete picture.
