Know exactly what consumables you hold, in every room, at both sites.

Low-stock alerts are set and triggered per room, not just per site, so you know that it is the nurse's room at the branch surgery running low on nitrile gloves — not simply that the practice is short somewhere.

Alerts arrive before the shelf is empty, which means no one discovers a missing box of dressings or syringes halfway through a clinic session.

It replaces walking round checking shelves and hoping somebody remembers to mention a gap.

Every delivery is recorded as its own batch with its own expiry date, and you are alerted well before that date arrives.

Staff are guided to take the oldest stock first (first-expired-first-out), so older boxes are used rather than pushed to the back of the cupboard.

Less clinical waste, and less of the budget spent replacing items that were never used.

Two locations with ten rooms each is a lot of ground to cover on foot, and separate spreadsheets per site rarely stay in step with each other.

One dashboard shows current levels for the whole practice, filtered by site, room, category or item.

A practice manager can answer 'do we have enough?' without leaving their desk.

The same scan works both ways: scan on delivery to book stock in, scan again when an item is taken out for use.

A task that used to mean a clipboard and a manual count becomes a few seconds on a phone.

That matters for clinical and reception staff who only have moments between patients.

Every movement — received, used, transferred or adjusted — is stored with a timestamp and the staff member who logged it.

If a question comes up later about how much of something was used, and where, the answer is already recorded rather than reconstructed from memory.

It supports accountability and good record-keeping around consumable usage as part of your wider practice records.

Deliveries tell you what you bought; the consumption dashboard tells you what you actually got through.

You can see which items move fastest, and in which rooms, over any period you choose.

Par levels and order quantities can then be based on real patterns instead of guesswork or last year's habit.
