Automating Inventory Management for a Healthcare Distributor Using OpenBoxes

Client Background

Medicare Supplies (Pvt.) Ltd. is a Lahore-based medical equipment distributor serving hospitals and clinics across Punjab.
As the company grew, so did the challenges of managing inventory. They were using spreadsheets to track stock levels, which often led to confusion, stockouts, and missed deliveries.

The Challenge

The team struggled with:

  • No real-time visibility into stock across different branches
  • Manually creating and approving purchase orders
  • Delays in updating shipment statuses
  • No system to track product expiry dates

It was clear they needed a faster, smarter way to manage inventory, one that could handle multiple locations and reduce human error.

Our Solution

We set up a hosted OpenBoxes system; an open-source supply chain management tool built specifically for healthcare logistics.
The solution included:

  • Barcode tracking for all product batches
  • Automated re-order alerts for low stock items
  • Role-based permissions for approvals
  • LiteSpeed hosting for quick and reliable performance

Everything was configured and deployed by VibeCatalyst, so the client didn’t have to worry about installation, updates, or maintenance.

The Results

After switching to OpenBoxes:

  • Order processing time dropped by 70%
  • They had zero expired product losses within three months
  • Clients noticed the improvement, deliveries became faster and more consistent

The team now runs a smooth, automated inventory system that keeps operations efficient and stress-free.
