23.7.2020 14:02:04 CEST | Business Wire | Press release
Biolog-id, LLC, a world leader in connected solutions for blood products, and South Texas Blood & Tissue Center, a leading provider of blood products throughout South Texas and beyond, mark three months of successful utilization of Biolog-id’s dedicated Convalescent Plasma solution in its supply chain. The deployed solution provides real-time visibility to convalescent plasma from collection to distribution, streamlining inventory, improving efficiency, and ultimately maximizing Return on Donation. Better visibility to the inventory facilitates efficient management of convalescent plasma, and so increases the availability of these scarce and valuable antibodies to the COVID-19 patients who need them.
“It was key for our team to ensure that Biolog-id’s solution could adapt to rapid changes in manufacturing, regulation, and market conditions for this unique product category,” said Elizabeth Waltman, Chief Operating Officer at South Texas Blood & Tissue Center. “Three months later we can fully appreciate how important that flexibility was for our blood center and for the COVID-19 patients that rely on us.”
“In addressing the need for a Convalescent Plasma solution, we used an inside-the-box approach to innovation,” said Amit Mayer, VP Innovation & Analytics at Biolog-id LLC. “This allowed us to leverage existing elements of our hardware, software, and industry know-how to rapidly develop a robust solution for a completely new type of blood product.”
“Our culture of collaboration meshed well with the needs of South Texas Blood & Tissue Center and their desire to positively influence patient outcomes.,” said Troy L. Hilsenroth, CEO Biolog-id LLC. “The solution we have deployed demonstrates our joint commitment to find new and better ways to track, store, and distribute high-value products in healthcare.”
