Mobile Logistics and Healthcare

The mobile logistics market shifts from expensive upfront hardware and software to subscription-based cloud services and low-cost Bring Your Own Devices, fueling growth in the home/durable medical equipment industry.

The connected logistics market worth will reach US$20.46 billion by 2020, predicts MarketsAndMarkets in a recent report.

The report says, “With the adoption of network-enabling technologies such as RFID, cellular and satellite networks and integrated IoT platforms; logistics vendors and industrial enterprises are focusing on the re-engineering the entire logistics and warehouse management process. Internet-enabled things will bring various benefits to both logistics vendors and industrial enterprises by facilitating or simplifying the inventory and workforce management, fleet tracking and order management process.”

Gregg Timmons, CEO at Apacheta, a mobile business solutions provider, believes, “We live in a world that values instant gratification, thanks in part to the majority ofoperational systems working online and through the cloud.

“However, many healthcare delivery companies still rely on paper-heavy systems, or use expensive, bulky technology to manage logistical concerns that can take weeks to process. In order to help catch them up with modern times, we integrated our software into the low-cost mobile technology that’s already taking residence in users’ pockets. By using our automated workflow mobile solutions, our partners experience a four-to-one return on investment, as well as significant improvements to their business practices, bottom line and customer service efforts.”
