RockySoft helps medical distributors and manufacturers find a balance between low inventory levels and
high service levels. Medical manufacturers must meet federal regulations and as such are subject to
inspections that can create unexpected delays in the supply chain. Both inspections and product stock
not meeting these regulations can effect inventory levels and create a dangerously low stock of medical
supplies. With the growing number of operations being outsourced, varying lead times make product
replenishment difficult to manage. Lives may be at stake, it is important for distributors to deliver
medical equipment in a timely manner and maintain an adequate amount of safety stock to ensure that products
will not stock out.

|
