At GPLS, we specialise in optimising transport and logistics processes to enhance the efficiency of specimen collection and delivery. By analysing current transport routes and leveraging data-driven insights, we help healthcare organisations streamline their logistics operations. Our innovative solutions ensure that specimens are transported quickly and securely, minimising delays and preserving sample integrity. Through effective coordination with both in-house and external transport providers, we enable healthcare teams to focus on delivering high-quality patient care.
Our Procedures
Our targeted approach not only improves the efficiency of transport operations but also fosters collaboration among healthcare providers and logistics teams. This comprehensive strategy results in reduced operational costs and improved service delivery, ultimately benefiting both providers and patients alike.
Optimised Transport Routes
We analyse live demand, collection patterns and route performance to redesign transport networks that reduce mileage, protect turnaround times and ensure reliable specimen movement across the system.
Enhanced Sample Integrity
By ensuring proper handling and transportation protocols, we maintain the quality and reliability of specimens throughout the logistics process.
Real-Time Tracking
Our platform delivers real-time specimen tracking across the transport and laboratory pathway, providing full visibility of location, status and handover points. Teams can proactively manage delays, protect turnaround times and maintain diagnostic flow with confidence.
Warehouse and Consumables
GPLS applies data modelling to warehouse activity, stock movements and consumables usage to identify inefficiencies, duplication and avoidable waste. By analysing order frequency, storage patterns, stock ageing and distribution demand, we help organisations optimise inventory levels while protecting service resilience.
Proactive Logistics Management
Our proactive logistics management strategies focus on anticipating and addressing potential challenges before they impact service delivery. By leveraging data analytics and insights, we help healthcare organizations make informed decisions that enhance operational efficiency and improve patient outcomes.
