“…Besides illegal medical equipment, the rampant sale of counterfeit medical equipment has recently become an issue that has disturbed the Indonesian people. The medical equipment industry must also comply with regulations and standards issued by the government (Bhalaji et al, 2022;Cheng et al, 2020). This includes Good Ways of distributing Medical Devices, Food and Drug Administration, International Organization for Standardization, and other local or international mandate certifications.…”

The purpose of this research is to analyze and evaluate whether the costs incurred by the company can meet the established cost standards and how its implementation can reduce and eliminate all activities that are not value-added to all costs, especially import and distribution activities to customers, resulting in cost reductions that increase competitive advantage and maximize profitability. The analysis of this research is descriptive qualitative in the form of a case study through obtaining data from observation, interviews, and documentation. The findings show a cost difference between the traditional methods implemented by the company and the cost of reaching the standards set with Activity Based Management. Furthermore, the company reduces non-value-added activities in importing and shipping goods to customers to win the competition. It establishes a PESTEL strategy for analyzing the inhibiting factors of market competition.

“…First, relevant data involving the renewal of large medical equipment were studied, and the indicators related to the equipment were initially screened. Subsequently, experts engaged in medical equipment management and hospital management were consulted using the Delphi method ( 22 , 23 ), and the initially selected evaluation indicators were refined and perfected from the 20 indicator datasets based on the criteria of high sensitivity and collectability of the indicators. Finally, the evaluation index system was constructed from four aspects, namely, operation guarantee, social benefits, technical indicators ( 24 ) and economic benefits, in order to comprehensively evaluate the performance, efficiency and effectiveness of the equipment in actual operation, and to provide a more comprehensive and objective basis for the decision-making of equipment renewal, as shown in Table 1 .…”

IntroductionIn the rapidly evolving field of digital public health, effective management of medical equipment is critical to maintaining high standards of healthcare service levels and operational efficiency. However, current decisions to replace large medical equipment are often based on subjective judgments rather than objective analyses and lack a standardized approach. This study proposes a multi-criteria decision-making model that aims to simplify and enhance the medical equipment replacement process.MethodsThe researchers developed a multi-criteria decision-making model specifically for the replacement of medical equipment. The model establishes a system of indicators for prioritizing and evaluating the replacement of large medical equipment, utilizing game theory to assign appropriate weights, which uniquely combines the weights of the COWA and PCA method. In addition, which uses the GRA method in combination with the TOPSIS method for a more comprehensive decision-making model.ResultsThe study validates the model by using the MRI equipment of a tertiary hospital as an example. The results of the study show that the model is effective in prioritizing the most optimal updates to the equipment. Significantly, the model shown a higher level of differentiation compared to the GRA and TOPSIS methods alone.DiscussionThe present study shows that the multi-criteria decision-making model presented provides a powerful and accurate tool for optimizing decisions related to the replacement of large medical equipment. By solving the key challenges in this area as well as giving a solid basis for decision making, the model makes significant progress toward the field of management of medical equipment.

“…One definition of the term "supply chain" applicable to vaccines and healthcare, in is: "the network of organizations involved, through upstream and downstream linkages, in the different processes and activities that produce value in the form of products and services delivered to the ultimate consumer" [67,68]. Efficient vaccine supply chain management and operations are critical to ensuring the commercial viability of vaccines.…”

The success of natural, non-invasive vaccines is dependent not only on their efficacy and safety but also on the logistics and business ecosystems required to develop and distribute them. This chapter discusses the challenges and opportunities associated with developing and implementing a supply chain for such vaccines as well as different scenarios that a similar new business could encounter on its path to the market. We examine options for vertical coordination within the value chain in areas such as product manufacturing, packaging, and distribution. Market and stakeholder analysis is also provided, which focuses on contracting strategies, while keeping in mind the importance of an efficient and equitable distribution of vaccines. Lastly, we will explain our most probable road map, how we arrived at that decision, and how this information can be used by natural vaccine producers to develop supply chains.
