BlueQ Analytics offers industry-leading healthcare supply chain and productivity management solutions, providing real-time analytics and a singular daily management system to drive continuous supply chain improvement. BlueBin is a pioneer in the healthcare industry, being the first commercial provider of a standardized Kanban system for healthcare supply chain management.

BlueBin's mission is to dramatically improve healthcare by adding value to the supply chain process and ensuring clinicians have the right supplies at the right time, maximizing efficiency. Their solutions fuse cutting-edge technology with lean methodologies and principles, providing an operating system for managing all medical supplies across hospital and healthcare environments.

BlueBin's flagship offering, the BlueBin Kanban system, is a visual hospital inventory replenishment platform that revolutionizes supply management. It optimizes inventory by delivering items to the right place, in the right quantity, when needed, eliminating ambiguity and excess supply inventories. This system reduces repetitive medical supply expenses by 5% annually, inventory holding costs by 25% annually, increases overall supply chain operations efficiency by 30% annually, and reduces the space needed to store supplies by 25%.

In August 2023, BlueBin unveiled BBID, a next-generation electronic two-bin Kanban solution, at the AHRMM23 convention. BBID combines RFID, LED lighting, and voice technology, building on the benefits of BlueBin's industry-leading Kanban solution to generate increased process efficiency from operational and clinical perspectives.

BlueBin acquired Richard Philippe's RFID-enabled Two Bin system and partnered with Avatek to develop BBID, marking the next frontier in healthcare Supply Chain Management automation.
