From last-mile blind spots to complete stock visibility.
Know what’s available, where it is, and whether it’s ready to use. PIMS brings quantities, locations, batches, expiration dates, and costs into one clear view across non-food itmes, medicines, consumables, nutrition products, equipment, and kits—helping teams spot shortages, prioritize stock nearing expiration, and make better use of every supply.

Capabilities
What Items & Inventory does
Item and batch visibility
Check overall availability, then review batches for expiration, cost and project allocation before deciding what to use or move.
Barcodes, QR and GS1
Speed up identification and receiving with barcodes, QR codes and GS1 scanning, and print labels for daily use.
Build and unpack kits
Assemble or unpack kits while PIMS updates component quantities, keeping both kit and item records aligned.
Bin locations & floor plans
Give staff a shared way to find supplies, with bin assignments, floor plans and a history of batch locations.
Lock & quarantine
Restrict movement of items or batches under review, and define suitable alternatives for substitution.
Stock card & costing
Follow each item’s stock history and batch costs, with connected ERP inventory available alongside PIMS records.
The challenge
Where visibility makes a difference
An item listed as available may still be hard to find or close to expiration. Teams need more than a total quantity to know what is usable.
A healthy total can hide expiration risk
Batches of the same item can have different expiration dates. A combined total alone does not show which stock needs to move first.
Time lost looking for stock
When stock locations are unclear, staff search shelves and ask colleagues before they can complete a pick or serve a patient.
Hidden kit contents distort stock levels
Kit contents are a major blind spot across supply chains, driving false shortages and overstated stock. PIMS makes every item inside visible.
