The challenge

Hospitals must deliver high-quality care with limited resources. From operating room allocation to staff scheduling and patient or goods logistics, planners need to balance demand, costs, and patient outcomes - often under tight time pressure.

Why it's complex

Resource constraints

Operating rooms, beds, and specialised staff are limited and must be used efficiently.

Competing priorities and rules

Medical urgency, staff contracts, and departmental preferences create a tightly coupled puzzle.

Manual, fragmented planning

Traditional approaches rely on spreadsheets and meetings, making it hard to test alternatives or see long-term impacts.
