Hospitals need robots.

The ctrl platfrom allows you to get robots working in your business using our integrations to setup hardware, data and users with ease.

The Problem

Providing high-quality healthcare to patience has become increasingly more difficult than ever before.

With rising equipment, supplies and staff costs, balancing the budget and providing effective healthcare is harder than ever before.

  • Rising costs of operations in high inflationary environments
  • Low operational efficiencies in hospitals
  • Ongoing staff shortages and low productivity
  • Tedious and labour-intensive work
  • Hard to source skillset

While there are many challenges, one of the easily solvable problems is the internal logistics of medicine, supplies and waste collection.

Hospital efficiency challenges

Hospitals are large buildings, staff have to cover large distances every day to do their jobs which causes a loss in productivity, higher levels of fatigue and a waste of their valuable time.

The travel distance in an average hospital, which is between 10,000 to 15,000 square meters in size, can add up significantly over the course of a week.

There are multiple departments in any hospital that need to perform at the highest efficiency or the backlog will cause a cascading effect.

These operations that happen between these departments are critical to the efficient operation but have the highest opportunity for automation.

The Solution

Hybrid automated workforce

With a fleet of mixed dynamic robots in a hospital facility, the distance needed to travel becomes exponentially less.

The internal logistics and large-scale cleaning operations can be easily automated and give more time back to the staff for meaningful work and dramatically increase productivity and outcome.

Ctrl is simple robotic automation.

Businesses can integrate their ERP, WMS, POS and other systems into a mixed robot fleet. Users can design and build powerful automation and manage their entire fleet to fulfil tasks efficiently. Ctrl is designed to cut the complexity to build useful automation and have an operation running in hours.

With one centralised platform to control all the robots in the building, traffic management, user management, demand planning fleet operation can all be managed from one platform and allow smooth operation throughout the facility.

Results from 4 weeks of operation with 1 robot

Our robots travelled for an average time of 10 hours per day and saved the porters 10 kilometres of walking per day during the pilot. This gives staff more time to manage stock controls and general tasks within the pharmacy environment that could not be done previously due to the amount of time and energy spent delivering medication.
