InterSystems Track and Trace Brings Intelligent Supply Chain Visibility

Gain Intelligent Supply Chain Visibility

Supply chains face constant disruptions, from weather events and geopolitical disruptions to labor shortages and capacity issues. Decision intelligence can help by using AI, machine learning, and simulations to predict outcomes, weigh scenarios, and recommend the best course of action to overcome these disruptions.

Track and trace is the ability to monitor the movement of goods or items throughout the global supply chain, providing visibility through both real-time and historical location and status information. While supply chain visibility gives you real-time data on inventory, shipments, delays, and demand, the ability to act on this data is crucial. Decision intelligence bridges the gap between raw data and strategic actions, adding a layer of contextual understanding and recommendations.

Decision Intelligence: The Visibility Difference

InterSystems now brings decision intelligence-enabled track and trace capabilities to your supply chain through its partnership with Descartes MacroPoint™. The need to know where your products are (whether in transport to the warehouse, port, store, manufacturing plant, or customer), when delays occur, and be alerted to these delays, is critical to ensure a positive customer experience. InterSystems provides a single source of truth with full interconnected supply chain visibility to anticipate, simulate, and activate your next move. AI-based actionable insights make recommendations to solve problems before they occur.

One Patient, One Record Healthcare organisations rely on a wide range of systems to deliver care — from EHRs and pharmacy software to scheduling tools and billing platforms. But when each system stores patient data separately, inconsistencies, duplicate records and identity challenges can disrupt care and limit AI implementation, workflow optimisation and data exchange. Recent HIMSS Market Insights research confirms that healthcare leaders recognise the strategic importance of accurate patient identity data, yet persistent issues continue to undermine progress.
