Electronic Health Record (EHR) System

Function : Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems have been created with the
purpose of converting and preserving health information in a format. These systems
offer an archive of a patients complete medical background encompassing details such,
as medical diagnoses, treatment strategies, prescribed medications, laboratory findings
and additional relevant information.

Featues :

 Ensuring the storage of data

 Seamless integration, with diagnostic equipment and laboratory systems
 Convenient electronic prescription capabilities
 Helpful tools to assist healthcare providers in decision making
 Implementing access control to safeguard patient confidentiality

Targer-Users:

Healthcare professionals such as doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and administrative staff

within hospitals, clinics, and healthcare facilities.

How It is Used :

EHR systems play a role, in optimizing healthcare operations elevating the quality of
patient care minimizing mistakes and enhancing the management of healthcare. They
grant authorized healthcare professionals the ability to retrieve records make informed
decisions regarding treatments and foster collaborative efforts, in delivering
comprehensive patient care across various departments and medical facilities.

Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) System

Function : Manufacturing resource planning (MRP) systems play a role, in overseeing
and coordinating the production process. Their primary objective is to enhance the
utilization of resources keep track of inventory levels and schedule production activities
effectively.

Featues :

 Monitoring of inventory
 Handling and organization of Bill of Materials (BOM)
 Scheduling production and planning capacity
 Supervising and maintaining supplier relationships
 Predicting demand, for products and services

Targer-Users:

Production managers, inventory controllers, procurement teams, and workers in

manufacturing companies.

How It is Used :

MRP systems are implemented to optimize production processes by coordinating the

availability of materials, labor and equipment. Their purpose is to fulfill customer
demand minimize production expenses and keep inventory levels in check by ensuring
access, to the required materials.

Geographic Information System (GIS):

Function : Geographic Information System (GIS) technology is specifically created to
gather, store, assess and present geographic data. Its purpose is to combine maps,
satellite images and diverse data layers for the purpose of aiding analysis and decision
making processes.

Featues :

 Visualizing maps
 Analyzing and modeling spatial data
 Querying and searching based on location
 Integration with GPS and remote sensing data
 Geospatial data sharing and collaboration tools

Targer-Users:

Urban planners, environmental scientists, government agencies, real estate

professionals, and industries that rely on location-based data.

How It is Used :

GIS is used for a wide range of applications, including urban planning, disaster
management, natural resource management, transportation planning, and business
location analysis.
