Overall, the medical device industry has developed well in my country's national economy and has a promising future. However, the competitiveness is not strong. The huge pressure that my country's medical device companies need to face is the consumption of a large amount of manpower and material resources under the GMP requirements. In this case, how to make full use of the network economy and information means to increase management efforts, minimize operating costs and expand the market has become the top priority of corporate leadership decision-making.

Fangtian Software's solution for the medical device industry is mainly reflected in the management concept of forecasting as guidance and planning as execution, which fully achieves real-time quality management and quality tracking throughout the entire process. And through flexible quality management modules, it greatly reduces the cost pressure brought to enterprises by the implementation of GMP management. The system also improves the efficiency of the entire enterprise management activities through system management throughout the entire process, while providing complete and reliable cost accounting capabilities. It provides enterprises with a comprehensive ERP management and decision-making system.

Fangtian SoftwareMedical Device ERPSolutions and full-process business management help medical device companies build a transparent and efficient management system.

1. Supplier/customer access management

Supplier management enters the supplier's comprehensive qualifications, scale, quality certification system, business license and other qualification information into the system. It also has historical procurement data. When the buyer places a purchase order, the supplier's actual qualifications, product information, etc. are screened based on the validity of the data to control product quality from the source.

Customer management: Based on the management guidelines of the Food and Drug Administration, sales staff can obtain basic customer information in real time and strictly manage the sales channels of medical devices.

2. Product Lifecycle Management

The supply chain management system inputs accurate information about the entry of raw materials/semi-finished products into the warehouse. When the production department collects materials for production, it can fully consider the validity period of raw materials and semi-finished products, realize flexible production collection, and issue early warnings for expired waste materials, stagnant materials, etc. in the warehouse.

The warehouse management system effectively controls the entry and exit of finished products, strictly manages their validity period and shelf life, and handles expired products in a timely and effective manner.

3. Production planning management (meet GMP review)

The medical device ERP solution includes a batch demand planning subsystem, which enables enterprises to better prepare production plans for products and semi-finished products at each stage and purchase plans for materials according to orders, reasonably schedule production according to product capacity or equipment capacity, and improve the feasibility of production plans;

With respect to the planned production and order-based production models, medical device companies can greatly improve the efficiency and accuracy of their work, which helps to improve customer satisfaction and bring greater benefits to the company.

At the same time, effective control is achieved for each business node, including raw material procurement and inventory management, production workshop and equipment management, quality supervision and traceability, to help establish a transparent and traceable production process to meet the GMP review of the Food and Drug Administration.

4. Quality traceability and validity period management of medical devices

Fangtian Software's medical device ERP solution provides batch number management for all incoming and outgoing materials;

For the sold products, the solution provides serial number management in the maintenance management. When a product has a problem, the maintenance status can be recorded in detail and the original production status and original materials of the product can be traced. In turn, the same batch of products of the product can be found, as well as the sales or inventory status of these products.

At the same time, the validity period of materials is strictly managed and controlled, and the system can provide early warning functions to promptly remind warehouse managers and production personnel to ensure product quality.

5. Refined cost accounting

Fangtian Medical Equipment ERP Solution divides costs into: material costs, labor costs, manufacturing costs and processing costs. The cost calculation method adopts batch and step method, and provides flexible settings for labor and cost allocation to adapt to various complex situations. It has clear data support for various expenses generated in various business links, freeing financial personnel from complicated manual operations such as data collection and cost allocation, and providing managers with cost information faster and more accurately, thereby improving the management decision-making level of the enterprise.

With the help of Fangtian ERP's flexible data reports and business analysis suite, enterprises can visualize production cost data. With the help of reports, they can achieve effective control at the cost analysis and gross profit analysis levels and obtain the input and output of each task in real time.

5. Intelligent warehouse management

Innovatively integrate barcode labels and RFID technology, and intelligent equipment throughout the entire logistics process to achieve digital and intelligent management and control of products;

Establish application scenarios for automated equipment such as three-dimensional shelves/three-dimensional containers, and realize "Shelves + robots = solutions for automated warehousing material systems" through information technologies such as mother-and-child cart systems, four-way shuttle technology, multi-layer shuttle technology, ground four-way light and two-heavy AGV technology, goods-to-person picking systems, WMS (warehouse management system) software, and WCS (warehouse control system) systems.

6. Combination of light intelligent manufacturing scenarios
