(BUSINESS WIRE) --
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.”
