关于客户
Pol-Eko-Aparatura is a leading Polish producer of laboratory equipment including thermostatic cabinets, laboratory refrigerators and freezers, incubators, heating and drying ovens, and laboratory homogenizers. Founded in 1991, the 90-employee strong company today exports to more than 25 countries in Europe, Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. In the highly specialized laboratory equipment market, Pol-Eko-Aparatura faces stiff competition from neighboring Germany. Lower product costs due in part to lower Polish wages gives Pol-Eko-Aparatura a competitive advantage over its German rivals. But this is not enough to guarantee success. Consequently, Pol-Eko-Aparatura has focused on reducing time-to-market while maintaining high standards of design quality.
挑战
Pol-Eko-Aparatura, a leading Polish producer of laboratory equipment, was facing the challenge of meeting the demands of its growing customer base without increasing cost or compromising quality. The company was operating in a highly specialized laboratory equipment market, facing stiff competition from neighboring Germany. While lower product costs due to lower Polish wages gave Pol-Eko-Aparatura a competitive advantage over its German rivals, it was not enough to guarantee success. Therefore, the company focused on reducing time-to-market while maintaining high standards of design quality. The company was using a third-party CAD system, which was not efficient enough to meet their needs.
解决方案
Pol-Eko-Aparatura adopted CATIA PLM Express in early 2008, switching from a third-party CAD system. The ability to design in-context and work on entire assemblies was the principle reason why the company made the move to CATIA. CATIA PLM Express also enables the engineers to work from a single version or master model of a product, which reduced the chances of error. CATIA’s generative and associative drawing features enable Pol-Eko-Aparatura to automatically generate drawings from the 3D master model. The company leverages the 3D nature of CATIA designs to gain valuable input from customers early on in the development process. Once the customer approves the design, Pol-Eko-Aparatura then proceeds with the series production.

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.
