About The Customer

Invivox is a Bordeaux-based start-up that has developed a platform for connecting doctors, surgeons, and specialists for training courses. The company puts practitioners from all over the world in touch with each other, while organizing travel to enable medical professionals to discover new surgical techniques or innovative approaches. Invivox is committed to sustainable development and believes that health and medico-social institutions are major players in this area. The company is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and has carried out a GHG assessment to understand its impact on the environment.

The Challenge

Invivox, a Bordeaux-based start-up, has developed a platform for connecting doctors, surgeons, and specialists for training courses. The company organizes travel for medical professionals to learn new surgical techniques and innovative approaches. However, Invivox recognized the need to reconcile the three pillars of sustainable development: the environment, the economy, and society. The company believed that health and medico-social institutions are major players in sustainable development, and the links between environment and health are significant and integral. Therefore, Invivox decided to carry out a Greenhouse Gas (GHG) assessment to understand its carbon footprint and take appropriate action. The company found that the purchase of services represented the majority of its carbon footprint.

The Solution

Invivox chose Greenly's solution to carry out a carbon assessment. Greenly's solution was chosen for its ease of use, intuitiveness, and reliability. The report provided by Greenly allowed Invivox to quickly identify its main emissions and the actions it could take to reduce them. Invivox's total emissions were found to be 72TCo2, equivalent to the annual emissions of 8 French people. The company decided to choose service providers according to their environmental criteria to reduce its carbon footprint and have a real impact. Invivox also decided to limit its digital emissions by favoring a less energy-consuming format for its advertising campaigns and limiting non-essential campaigns. The company also planned to raise awareness and involve its employees as much as possible in a CSR approach and invest in projects to offset its carbon footprint.

Operational Impact

  • Invivox's decision to carry out a GHG assessment has led to a greater understanding of its carbon footprint and the areas where it can make improvements. The company has taken steps to reduce its carbon footprint by choosing service providers based on their environmental criteria and limiting its digital emissions. Invivox has also committed to raising awareness among its employees about the importance of sustainable practices and involving them in its CSR approach. The company plans to invest in projects to offset its carbon footprint, demonstrating its commitment to sustainable development and the environment.

Quantitative Benefit

  • Invivox's total emissions were found to be 72TCo2, equivalent to the annual emissions of 8 French people.

  • The purchase of services represented 26% of Invivox's carbon footprint.

  • Digital emissions accounted for 25% of Invivox's carbon footprint.

Case Study
Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.

Harnessing real-time data to give a holistic picture of patient health
Every day, vast quantities of data are collected about patients as they pass through health service organizations—from operational data such as treatment history and medications to physiological data captured by medical devices. The insights hidden within this treasure trove of data can be used to support more personalized treatments, more accurate diagnosis and more advanced preparative care. But since the information is generated faster than most organizations can consume it, unlocking the power of this big data can be a struggle. This type of predictive approach not only improves patient care—it also helps to reduce costs, because in the healthcare industry, prevention is almost always more cost-effective than treatment. However, collecting, analyzing and presenting these data-streams in a way that clinicians can easily understand can pose a significant technical challenge.
