Restock nursing unit storerooms without paper order forms
Athos™ Kanbanet combines modular, expandable shelving with software that turns every kanban card into a restocking order for each department's storeroom.
Why Athos™ Kanbanet
Paper orders delay restocking and leave logistics without visibility
Using order forms to restock medical supplies in each department's storeroom leads to delays and transcription errors, and leaves the logistics department without knowing what is really needed.
The restocking cycle
Nursing places the card in the RFID box
The RFID box automatically generates the restocking order
The storeroom prepares the order and delivers it to the unit
How it works
Two compartments and a card that requests restocking
Each item has an in-use compartment and a reserve compartment. When the in-use compartment empties, its kanban card generates the order.
What changes
Less paperwork on the unit, more control for logistics
No paper order forms
The kanban card replaces the order form: nursing doesn't have to fill anything out.
No transcription errors
The order is generated when the card is read, without copying the item or the department by hand.
Real-time visibility for logistics
Logistics sees the kanban orders from each department and centralizes restocking across all their storerooms.
Shelving that grows with the department
Expandable modules that adapt to the space and supplies of each storeroom.
Specifications
Shelving, cards and software in a single system
The shelving organizes each department's supplies. The Athos™ Kanbanet software turns every card it reads into an order for the storeroom.
Frequently asked questions
What people ask us about Athos™ Kanbanet
How many nursing unit storerooms does your hospital have?

Request a consultationHow does Athos™ Kanbanet eliminate paper orders in the nursing unit storeroom?
The nursing staff places the product's card in an RFID-reading box, which automatically generates the restocking order and sends it to the logistics department, with no need to fill out manual order forms.
What visibility does the system give the logistics department?
Athos™ Kanbanet lets the logistics department monitor, in real time, all the information generated by each department's kanban orders, centralizing restocking management across multiple hospital storerooms.
What happens while the restock is on its way?
The department still has supplies in the reserve compartment. When the order arrives, the reserve moves to the in-use compartment and the new supplies take its place.
Does it adapt to the space in each storeroom?
Yes. The shelving is modular and expandable, so the installation fits the space and supplies of each department and can grow with it.
