As one of the largest municipal hospitals in Europe, Nuremberg Hospital is a hospital providing maximum care. With its approximately 7,000 employees, it treats just over 100,000 inpatients and approximately 170,000 outpatients each year. The Nuremberg Hospital has a total of 42 institutions – including the locations Nuremberg North and Nuremberg South as well as various interdisciplinary centers. It relies on PSIwms to supply all departments and locations with all non-pharmaceutical consumables.

"The flexibility of the WMS and the integrated Kanban system enable the hospital to proactively take precautions, e.g. for the care of many injured persons. For example, in the system, it is possible to switch virtually at the push of a button by switching from normal care to prioritized (primary) care of internal customers with material for the treatment of injured people."

On the wards of the hospitals and in the medical centers, many different materials of daily use are constantly needed. They are all supplied from the central warehouse at Nuremberg Hospital North. It is important that logistic processes are optimized in a way that the ward supply is guaranteed at all times to ensure a fast and essential supply of the patients. The Nuremberg Hospital also expressed the wish to integrate a plausibility check in PSIwms which ensures that no unusually high quantities of consumables can be retrieved by a ward within a defined period of time.

For request for quantity monitoring, a request system was created, which corresponds to a set of rules, whose extensive master data are stored in PSIwms (includes description of the property, the buildings, the floors, the existing rooms with their material cabinets and integrated material compartments, including the number of items + different persons of the individual wards are created as users). An order process can be carried out either via a Kanban system or a web store. All incoming requests in PSIwms are now checked using the set of rules. If it is determined that an item exceeds a certain quantity in a defined period, PSIwms rejects the request and a manual correction may be made. For all requirements passing the plausibility check, PSIwms generates a stock removal order (this is transferred to the SAP system via web service interface and the correct posting is made). Each ward has fixed delivery days. Delivery notes generated from PSIwms are attached to the route trains. The so-called supply runs are partly carried out via underground supply tunnels beneath the hospitals. The cross-docking procedure is used for processing order-related or out-of-stock items. This means that the items do not remain in the warehouse but are directly passed on to the wards by the goods receiving department.
