DENVER, Dec. 5, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Swisslog, a leading supplier of solutions for medication, transport and supply chain management in healthcare, reveals a new Enterprise Software Portal at the American Society of Health System Pharmacy (ASHP) Midyear Clinical Meeting, December 4-8, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

"This year's booth reflects our dedication to creating connections across the continuum of care. In addition to pharmacy automation, this is demonstrated through our automated transport and consolidated service center solutions," explains Anthony Pugliese, Senior Vice President of Sales for Swisslog North America. "This breadth of capabilities is what sets Swisslog apart from traditional pharmacy automation vendors."
Connecting these supply chain solutions is the Enterprise Software Portal. Today, the Portal includes three applications:
"In addition to creating connectivity across our solutions, in 2016 we have made a concerted effort to connect with our clients in more meaningful ways," remarks Pugliese. "The development of a Center of Excellence Program has facilitated important dialogue with key client sites, including St. Joseph's Hospital, in Denver."
Being a Center of Excellence (COE) means more than just a strong feedback loop; sites like St. Joseph take part in piloting new technology developed by Swisslog. Most recently this included the new Nexus™ Station for TransLogic® Pneumatic Tube Systems and Optimization Dashboards, the latest reporting engine for the company's pharmacy automation portfolio. Available for demonstration at ASHP, the dashboards enable Pharmacy Directors to report on the overall health of their pharmacy, including daily tracking of medication management KPIs. As a COE, St. Joseph was also recently featured in a video about their BoxPicker™ Automated Pharmacy Storage System, which will be featured in the company's ASHP booth. Demonstrations of Pharmacy Inventory Manager and Delivery Manager will also be available for show attendees in the Swisslog booth, #1827.
