Inventory management, especially for wound closures, can be challenging, time-consuming, and highly variable, resulting in wasted inventory and high costs.

PANDAC℠ includes dedicated on-site service, in-depth reporting and integration with materials management, business reviews and the ability to expand management to other product categories.

Increasing inventory turns

Increasing Inventory Turns using PANDAC℠

One of the benefits customers realize with PANDAC℠ is an increase in inventory turns of their sutures and endo mechanical. PANDAC℠ will work with a hospital to consolidate slower-moving SKUs into faster-moving SKUs so that there are fewer SKUs to manage. The result is less inventory carried, lower costs and a higher number of turns for the suture and endo-mechanical inventory.
