关于客户
The customer is a global company in the healthcare and personal products industry, where brand trust is paramount. They rely on a vast network of suppliers and partners to deliver high-quality products to consumers worldwide. The company places a high emphasis on the reliability and integrity of its supply chain, ensuring that all materials and manufacturing processes meet stringent standards. Additionally, they require that all partners adhere to labor laws, regulations, and maintain a strong corporate culture. The company had been facing challenges with the efficiency and effectiveness of their supplier vetting process, which was crucial for maintaining their high standards.
挑战
With so many suppliers to vet worldwide, the company had relied on a vendor to conduct research and due diligence at the onboarding stage. However, it proved to be a frustrating, inefficient process: It often took the vendor as long as 6-8 weeks to deliver a report – which often meant the client company had to either delay onboarding a desired supplier, or greenlight it without knowing the risks. Additionally, these reports were not customizable, and provided too much unneeded detail. The company had very specific criteria they were looking for, yet it was often buried in dense report narratives. This substantially slowed approvals.
解决方案
LexisNexis® Risk Solutions partnered with the company to optimize its third-party due diligence with an unmatched recipe of data and automation. The results were clear: Turnaround time of reporting was cut in half or more – enabling them to bring new suppliers on board without missing a beat. The company also reduced costs and resources by receiving only the information most important to their decisions.

Case Study
Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.
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.
