Case Study: Whiston Hospital improves stock control and efficiency with TSC Business Solutions and Wasp InventoryControl

Whiston Hospital Microbiology Lab improves stock control with Wasp InventoryControl

Whiston Hospital’s Microbiology lab needed a better way to manage strict stock control for reagents and materials while supporting a very busy operation that processes around 1,500 samples a day. The lab turned to TSC Business Solutions for Wasp InventoryControl to improve inventory management, efficiency, and compliance.

TSC Business Solutions supplied and installed Wasp InventoryControl, a standalone on-premise stock control system with barcode scanning and automated tracking of stock across multiple storage areas, cold stores, and freezers. The solution helped staff see where stock was located instantly, automatically capture item, lot, and expiry data, support reordering and expiry reporting, and improve UKAS materials management compliance; as a result, the lab processed more samples, reduced time spent searching for stock, and lowered material costs by using time-sensitive items more effectively.
