Hospitals connected

The National Blood Bank of Benin manages blood supply across 42 hospitals and 12 regional transfusion centers. Before RedQ, the system operated on reactive logistics. Gytev's platform transformed this into a predictive, data-driven operation.

The Challenge

Blood product shelf life is limited. The blood bank had no real-time inventory visibility across its distributed network. Shortages of rare blood types were discovered only when patients needed them.

The Solution

Gytev deployed RedQ as a centralized intelligence layer connecting all 42 hospital blood banks. The platform provides real-time inventory dashboards, demand forecasting, expiry alerts, and automated redistribution recommendations.

The Results

Wastage from expired products dropped by 41%. Critical shortages of O-negative blood were reduced by 67%. Average fulfillment time dropped from 36 hours to 8 hours.

RedQ gives us real-time visibility on every blood bag in the country. Shortages are predicted, not endured.
