Medical goods must arrive on time and be demonstrably received in good condition.
Hospital logistics and medical wholesalers work with fixed supply rounds, urgent orders and goods that must not get damaged. What happens at receiving needs to be traceable.
Request demo →In healthcare, inbound is a mix of fixed rounds, large deliveries and urgent orders. There is often little loading space, for example at a hospital in a residential area. SlotIQ spreads the limited dock capacity across the day and records at every receipt when the delivery came and whether anything was wrong with it.
These problems cost time, money and employees every single day.
A hospital or healthcare DC often has only one or two docks. When two suppliers arrive together, one waits on the street.
On top of daily supply come urgent deliveries. They have to fit in without disrupting the fixed schedule.
Damaged packaging on sterile or medical goods must be recorded at receipt. Later, it is impossible to tell where it went wrong.
In a recall or a question from a ward, you want to know quickly when a delivery came in and who received it.
The receiving team often has other duties too. Unexpected deliveries keep pulling them away from other work.
From manual and reactive to automated and predictable.
Built for the operational reality of Healthcare & Medical.
You set opening hours and the number of trucks per hour for each dock. Suppliers pick a free moment, so they don't arrive together.
Daily or weekly supply is set up once. There is still room for one-off and urgent deliveries alongside.
Receiving reports damaged packaging or a wrong product directly on the booking, with a photo. The report stays linked to supplier and time.
Every booking shows the carrier, licence plate, reference and actual arrival and departure time. Everything is searchable and exportable.
The day overview shows which deliveries are coming and when. The team can plan other tasks around inbound instead of being interrupted constantly.
The questions we hear most from Healthcare & Medical.
Yes. A planner schedules an urgent delivery straight away or registers it as a walk-in, and you keep capacity free per hour for urgent orders. That way urgent deliveries fit between the fixed rounds.
Yes. With few docks, setting a maximum per hour is exactly what stops suppliers arriving at the same time.
No. SlotIQ only processes data about deliveries, carriers and drivers, not about patients.
Yes. Every status change, such as arrival or departure, records who registered it and when.
