Business background

1. Broad market prospects

With the improvement of national living standards and the accelerated trend of population aging, the market demand for medical devices in my country continues to increase, and the future development will still show a continuous growth trend.

2. There are many problems in self-built logistics

The rapid development of the medical device industry has brought an increase to the logistics business scale of the industry and enterprises, but also exposed many problems. With the strengthening of supervision, choosing a third-party logistics platform to reduce risks has become the choice of more and more enterprises.

3. The operating cost of the hospital’s own warehouse is high

The low degree of automation, poor human efficiency, chaotic management, and poor logistics and logistics support in the hospital's own warehouses lead to high overall operating costs of its supply chain, and professional service providers are urgently needed.


Industry warehousing and logistics characteristics

Warehousing and logistics is an important link in the medical device supply chain. The warehousing and distribution link in the medical device industry has its own particularities, which are mainly reflected in two aspects:

1. Large number of SKUs:

Compared with pharmaceutical distribution companies with about 10,000 SKUs, the number of SKUs in enterprise logistics warehouses in the medical device distribution industry can reach 100,000, or hundreds of thousands.

2, the product difference is big:

In terms of product types, from small to cardiac stents, orthopedic products, to large-scale medical equipment, product differences are very obvious, all of which bring great challenges to warehousing and logistics.

Based on the above industry background and industry characteristics,BlueSword has cooperated with a large domestic medical group to create a platform-type smart warehouse that is representative of the medical device circulation industry in China.


Project Overview

The large medical group invested and constructed the project according to its own business development and in accordance with the requirements of the national GSP and relevant quality management regulations. With a total construction area of nearly 30,000 square meters, it is a medical device logistics smart warehouse integrating intelligence and automation for all categories and all business scenarios. Starting from the needs of customers, BlueSword has overcome a series of supporting design difficulties in the early stage of technology, civil engineering, fire protection and other third parties, and finally completed the optimal design and implementation of the scheme.

The intelligent warehouse building area is a five-story structure, with a 24-meter automatic high-level pallet warehouse, an 11-meter multi-storey shuttle automatic warehouse, and goods-to-person dismantling and picking, review packaging, Kiva storage picking area, robot automatic palletizing, AGV Forklift automatic handling, forklift high shelf storage area, warehousing pending inspection area, delivery collection area, pallet storage area, various special function storage areas, etc.


Project Highlights

1. All scenes, all categories

It can simultaneously adapt to multiple business scenarios such as orthopedics, interventional, general consumables, IVD reagents, e-commerce 2C, and primary medical institutions, and can deal with a wide variety of massive processing objects.

2. High degree of automation

It adopts advanced logistics technology, such as multi-pass and intensive storage and distribution and goods to people, cross-temperature area picking in cold storage, integration of core-picking, automatic cargo shape detection, etc. It is equipped with advanced automation equipment at home and abroad, such as palletizing robots, vertical Lifting containers, various types of AGVs, two-way shuttles, automatic loading and unloading equipment, etc.

3. Multi-temperature zone

The multi-pass warehouse in the project not only has a shady warehouse with more than 21,000 spaces, but also plans to build a cold storage with more than 12,000 spaces.

4. Large scale

Domestic hospitals are known as "North Union, South Xiangya, East Qilu, West China", and the largest service target of this smart warehouse is Xiangya Hospital, one of them. After the project is fully put into operation, it is expected that the annual throughput will be Over 20 billion yuan.

5. High level of complexity

The project covers almost all logistics equipment in the warehousing and logistics industry, and AGV alone involves a variety of product types.

In addition, BlueSword also assisted the client in improving the SPD hospital out-of-storage solution in the project. For different types of products of general consumption, high-value consumables, orthopaedics, and interventional products, the whole process of processing objects can be traced, helping the client to realize the process. upgrade.

BlueSword relies on advanced concepts, cutting-edge technologies and powerful software and hardware products to successfully plan and implement this large-scale medical device smart warehouse for customers. After the operation of the medical device smart warehouse, it can not only meet the customer's own storage needs, but also empower the regional industry ecology and build it into a large-scale digital supply chain platform of "third-party logistics + smart warehousing + SPD service". It can upgrade the digital intelligence of the medical device supply chain!
