Hana Innovation Award
The Tuttlingen-based medical technology company Aesculap, a division of B. Braun Melsungen, was honored by SAP with this year's Hana Innovation Award in the Digital Trailblazer category.
The Walldorf-based software company awards this prize to customers who develop particularly innovative solutions based on SAP technologies and have established them on the market.
The prize was awarded to a digital service platform realized by IBsolution for Aesculap, which provides apps for various tasks in hospitals.
Work aids that were previously mainly created manually are now automated, which has a positive effect on patient safety and the efficiency of work processes.
One of the first applications, called "TOM" (Tray Organizing Manager), enables staff in sterile supply to quickly and easily arrange surgical instruments that differ depending on the type of procedure.
