More than a year after IDENTI's Smart Cabinet system and integrated AI management software was installed at one of Mexico's major medical centers to manage the supply of medical implants and kits for laparoscopic/bariatric surgery and other OR procedures, Johnson & Johnson is expanding this successful pilot program to other hospitals in Mexico.

In addition, a new pilot will begin in Brazil for implants in orthopedic surgeries.
Inaccurate inventory data, expired items, manual inventory counting, long shipment-to-cash times, inaccurate billing processes and mistakes in replenishment orders, led Johnson & Johnson to seek digital solutions that would provide an accurate view of inventory levels of medical devices at point-of-use inside hospitals.
"We performed a complete digital transformation to the J&J work process," said IDENTI CEO Shlomo Matityaho.
Johnson & Johnson Global Supply Chain Digital Executive Neil Ackerman called IDENTI "world class" and said, "IDENTI has the solutions to ensure business value, economic viability and adherence to regulations for all customers and stakeholders in the medical supply industry."
