SAN DIEGO, Jan. 18, 2018 -- IntelliGuard, developer of Intelligent Inventory Solutions™ for critical inventory management in healthcare, today announced a Purchase and License Contract to implement its Vendor Managed Inventory System™ to support the QIAGEN QIAstock Inventory Program.
QIAGEN manufactures more than 500 core products and serves more than 500,000 customers around the globe with solutions for molecular testing. Their Sample to Insight® solutions serve four major customer categories. The QIAstock Inventory Program, powered by IntelliGuard, will initially focus on Academia and Pharma.
The QIAstock Inventory Program provides an efficient and economical way to make QIAGEN products available at customer sites when and where researchers need them. QIAGEN representatives work with customers to decide which QIAGEN products will be available in each QIAstock location. These products are then provided by QIAGEN as an onsite supply stored in IntelliGuard® RFID-enabled Smart Cabinets™ for immediate access and use by researchers.
Using advanced RFID technology along with an integrated hardware and software platform, IntelliGuard® cabinets automatically transmit inventory levels to QIAGEN as product is removed or restocked. QIAGEN representatives remotely monitor inventory, track products as they are used and replenish stock based on an agreed-upon replenishment schedule. The IntelliGuard® Vendor Managed Inventory System™ offers cold, controlled room temperature and ambient storage cabinets in numerous sizes to support the safe storage and on-site stocking needs of a variety of inventory.
“QIAGEN is an ideal partner for the IntelliGuard® Vendor Managed Inventory System™,” said Gordon Krass, IntelliGuard CEO. “As a global company with hundreds of QIAstock locations operating throughout the world, we are excited to help QIAGEN continue to deliver the high-quality customer service they are known for, while increasing revenue, maximizing inventory visibility and improving operational efficiency.”
This contract follows a successful trial of the QIAstock Inventory Program, powered by the IntelliGuard® RFID Platform at several U.S. customer locations and provides for expansion throughout North America and Europe.
