FALL RIVER, Mass., June 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Millstone Medical Outsourcing announced today that the company recently introduced an advanced version of its online inventory management system. After several months of testing and refinement, Millstone launched a new online, password-protected system used by medical device manufacturers to track inventory, place orders, and manage distribution. Benefits of the enhanced inventory management system include increased speed, more robust reporting, and application of best practices to streamline functionality. Millstone, outsource partner to the nation's top orthopedic companies, is the fast-growing provider of advanced inspection, clean room packaging, loaner kit processing, and distribution services to medical and dental device manufacturers worldwide.

The enhanced inventory management system offers customers important advantages. Built upon a DotNet 4.0 platform, the system enables the download of large data files to Excel and/or Adobe PDF in seconds as opposed to minutes. The new system is equipped to scale as customers grow and has the capacity needed to absorb more and more data. Additional features include a variety of email notifications, the flexibility to request complete or incomplete loaner kits, and the ability to track expiration dates. Finally, while the standardization of information – based on Millstone's collection of best practices for online inventory control – allows for advanced functionality, the system is designed to accommodate significant customization.

"At Millstone, we endeavor to continually improve ours services and provide our customers with innovative solutions to business challenges. In this instance, our Director of Information Technology, Andre Furtado, worked diligently with our operations and program management groups to create a dramatic upgrade to our Inventory Management system," said Chris Ramsden, Millstone Chief Executive Officer. "We are excited to launch this new version, which we believe offers considerable advantages and will help our customers grow and succeed."
