The Schwarzwald-Baar Klinikum relies on modern processes - also in IT support. The use of cora has created a flexible 24/7 solution for automated hardware issue that relieves the IT team and efficiently supports employees in their day-to-day work at the hospital.

The Schwarzwald-Baar Klinikum in Villingen-Schwenningen is an academic teaching hospital of the University of Freiburg and, with around 3,300 employees and 1,000 beds, is one of the largest non-university hospitals in Baden-Württemberg. The new building, which opened in 2013, was constructed with the aim of providing state-of-the-art medical infrastructure while enabling efficient processes.

Modern & digital for efficient processes

With cora, Schwarzwald-Baar Klinikum is digitising its IT asset issue and sustainably increasing efficiency in IT support.

Initial situation

The hospital's IT support team was faced with increasing demands and a growing need for 24/7 availability. The manual issue of IT assets such as power supply units, toners or mice led to frequent interruptions in the IT team's day-to-day work. There was also a desire to provide employees with a flexible solution that was available at all times without having to tie up additional human resources.

The search for a powerful solution to these challenges began. From the outset, it was clear that the clinic's chosen path of innovative self-service processes should be consistently continued. Patient registration in the reception area of the Schwarzwald-Baar Klinikum is already carried out digitally and efficiently via self-service terminals.


Implementation

The hospital quickly became aware of cora during its research. The smart IT vending machine was strategically placed in the hospital's new building and covers the following use cases

  • Self-service issue of IT assets such as power supply units, toners, mice and batteries

  • Rental of meeting hardware and notebooks

  • Return of devices via an integrated return tray

  • Management and issue of keys for training rooms

The implementation went smoothly and the IT team was closely supported throughout the process. Thanks to the professional approach of cora Customer Success Management, the effort for Schwarzwald-Baar Klinikum was efficient and reduced to a minimum.

Successes

The introduction of cora brought numerous benefits to the Schwarzwald-Baar Klinikum:

  • Significant relief for the IT support team by reducing manual expenditure

  • Round-the-clock availability of IT assets for employees

  • High user satisfaction with an average rating of 4.7 out of 5 points

  • Efficient management of rental devices and keys

The employees particularly appreciate the ease of use and the rapid availability of the required hardware. The introduction of cora has also significantly reduced interruptions in the IT team's daily operations. The time-consuming manual processing of each individual hardware issue and return is now a thing of the past thanks to cora. Many of these processes are now largely self-service, which gives the team significantly more capacity to handle more complex tasks.
 

Outlook

In the future, the hospital plans to connect cora to the ITSM system Matrix42 in order to further automate processes and increase transparency. In addition, the use of cora in other departments is being examined in order to expand the benefits of the solution throughout the hospital.
 
With the implementation of cora, Schwarzwald-Baar Klinikum has taken an important step towards digitalisation and increased efficiency in IT support. The solution makes a significant contribution to meeting the high demands of modern hospital operations.
