Infonic’s software has been deployed at seven DHL sites across the UK to handle incoming invoices and documentation related to non-pharmaceutical based product supply for English Primary Care Trusts, said Infonic.
The deployment of Infonic’s software is expected to increase the capacity of the National Health Service (NHS) supply chain to handle incoming hard copy invoices without a corresponding increase in NHS staff, added Infonic.
According to Infonic, the software is expected to enable digital capture and secure, centralized storage of over 1.6 million supplier invoices per annum, allowing for more invoices to be processed daily within the NHS and enabling the NHS to benefit from supplier discounts which rely on short payment terms.
Mark Thompson, CEO of Infonic, said: I’m delighted at the successful implementation of Infonic’s document management software at DHL’s NHS Supply Chain. The potential of Infonic’s document capture and workflow automation technologies to add efficiencies to the operations of many parts of the NHS is significant and we see this as a good beach head from which to build a broader relationship with the supply chain team at DHL.
