A Zebra Case Study
RedBite Solutions, a Cambridge‑spun RFID specialist and creator of the cloud asset platform itemit, partnered with a leading Irish hospital that needed a simpler way to track its dialysis machines. Although the hospital had RFID tags, manual scanning took about 50 minutes several times a day, risked missed checks during off‑hours, and reflected the broader complexity and cost that had made RFID deployments difficult for many organisations.
RedBite integrated Zebra FX7500 fixed RFID readers with itemit using Zebra Data Services and Savanna, eliminating bespoke middleware and coding and allowing readers to be provisioned and managed in the cloud. The system was live in weeks, continuously reports machine locations to itemit, and is remotely manageable—saving clinicians about two weeks of time per year, improving equipment availability, and providing a scalable, cost‑effective solution as the rollout expands.
