关于客户
Norfolk and Waveney Mental Health Trust, established in 1994 and now an NHS Foundation Trust, provides a range of specialist mental health services to nearly 800,000 people across Norfolk and north east Suffolk. The Trust is dedicated to the care and recovery of individuals experiencing mental ill health or substance misuse issues. With nearly 1,600 full and part-time practitioners and an additional 600 staff providing non-clinical support services, the Trust operates 1,500 PCs and 250 laptops. The ICT department, consisting of 24 people, manages all core IT infrastructure and services, including technical support, project management, training, clinical systems, and security.
挑战
Norfolk and Waveney MHFT were looking for a solution that would consolidate its overall desktop management and include the following requirements: single desktop maintenance system, consolidation of existing toolsets, less intrusive patch management, and lower energy consumption. The Trust's ICT department, responsible for all core IT infrastructure and services, faced challenges with high energy consumption due to overnight upgrades and the practice of leaving computers on all night. This was in direct conflict with the Trust’s wish to become ‘greener’ and save money.
解决方案
The Trust implemented NightWatchman PC Power Management from 1E. This solution enables total workstation switch-on, product install, and switch off, ensuring 100% guaranteed patch management success and reduced PC power consumption. An informal trial of NightWatchman across ten machines demonstrated substantial energy and cost savings through auto-shutdown and wake-up configurations. With this evidence, the Trust provided a compelling business case for deploying the full PC Power Management across the entire organization. The Information Management and Technology Strategy Group supported the case, and funding was secured immediately.

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.
