挑战
随着 G-INCPM 多年来的发展,其现有数据中心的容量开始达到极限。IT 团队需要扩展 IT 资源的容量,以支持越来越多的研究人员并促进日益复杂、数据密集型的研究。找到一个可以快速部署的解决方案是关键;IT 团队不想减慢新研究人员的加入速度或对研究项目施加技术限制。同时,IT 团队希望保留对其基础设施的控制权,并帮助确保研究数据的最严格安全。该团队还希望将任何新数据中心保持在与其 IT 员工和现有设施的物理距离很近的位置。
关于客户
作为魏茨曼科学研究所的一部分,南希和斯蒂芬大以色列国家个性化医疗中心 (G-INCPM) 是一个先进的研究机构,为以色列科学家提供最先进的基因组学、蛋白质分析、药物发现和生物信息学资源。G-INCPM 成立于 2012 年,为推动个性化医疗发展的新科学发现铺平了道路。该组织汇集了学术、医学和生物医学行业的研究人员,使他们能够接触到尖端技术。研究人员需要强大的服务器和大容量存储环境来收集、分析和存储研究产生的数据。
解决方案
IBM® 全球技术服务部® (GTS) 与施耐德电气合作设计、构建和部署了预制模块化数据中心 (PMDC) 解决方案。该解决方案使 G-INCPM 能够快速且经济地增加容量,同时保持对 IT 资源的严格控制和安全性。IBM GTS 监督了设计、构建和部署 PMDC 解决方案的过程。首先,GTS 与 G-INCPM 的 IT 团队合作,确定需求并制定初步设计概念。然后,GTS 团队与施耐德电气(能源管理和自动化领域的全球专家,也是 IBM 的长期战略业务合作伙伴)合作,制定了构建解决方案的计划。完成详细设计后,GTS 团队与在西班牙工作的施耐德电气工程师合作,以满足 G-INCPM 的所有技术要求以及以色列的所有进口要求和标准。

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.

Harnessing real-time data to give a holistic picture of patient health
Every day, vast quantities of data are collected about patients as they pass through health service organizations—from operational data such as treatment history and medications to physiological data captured by medical devices. The insights hidden within this treasure trove of data can be used to support more personalized treatments, more accurate diagnosis and more advanced preparative care. But since the information is generated faster than most organizations can consume it, unlocking the power of this big data can be a struggle. This type of predictive approach not only improves patient care—it also helps to reduce costs, because in the healthcare industry, prevention is almost always more cost-effective than treatment. However, collecting, analyzing and presenting these data-streams in a way that clinicians can easily understand can pose a significant technical challenge.
