Reclaim Labor Hours

We help Plexus users convert the benefits and conveniences of a dedicated asset tracking system into hard savings by: 

  • reducing the occurrence of lost items, 

  • reducing the cost of labor to account for inventory, 

  • reducing the cost of labor to search for and maintain inventory, and by

  • reducing operating and capital costs associated with underused inventory.

Our Story

​In 2000, we were contacted by the U.S. Air Force Air Mobility Command to discuss supporting a newly formed initiative that involved managing a large pool of medical equipment. Air Mobility Command equips the Forces that maintain a worldwide Patient Movement (PM) Enroute Care (ERC) system with medical equipment specifically designated to be used for patients being evacuated. These equipment items are referred to as Patient Movement Items (PMI). The PMI CONOPS required a system that delivered the visibility of the location and status and movement of the PMI assets being distributed from multiple AE locations staged across the United States, Europe, and Central and Pacific Command facilities.

​

Today, 24 years later Plexus continues to provide visibility and mission support by tracking more than 50,000 items distributed across 90 PMI sites.

Our Background

2005 - Receive DIACAP ATO/ATC

           Certification

2006 - Integrate RFID capability

2008 - Work with JMLFDC to

            advance RFID capability

            in MTFs

In 2005 Conexus added passive, single zone, 928 MHz RFID technology to our PMI deployment.  As a result, the PMI program experienced a significant increase in readiness compliance  as well as a notable savings in labor.

​

With the success in supporting the PMI program and with the only ATO certified system, Conexus is marketing the system to the DHA Military Treatment Facilities (MTF). Today, we have installed the system at 20 DHA  MTFs .

2010 - Write/complete Bi-Directional

           interface to DMLSS and

           adopts common

           nomenclatures and adds

           802.11 Active Wi-Fi RTLS

           capability

2011 - Complete ATO

            update/expansion for DMLSS

            Interface and RTLS

Early in our relationship with PMI, Conexus was introduced to both the Defense Medical Logistics Standard Support (DMLSS) Program Office and the Air Force Medical Operations Agency (AFMOA). Under DMLSS/PMI and AFMOA, Conexus committed to the Information Assurance (IA) requirements and designs its technical approach to augment the Defense Health Agency’s (DHA) Systems of Record (SoR) (vis-à-vis DMLSS).

​

In 2010 we introduced passive RFID in our MTF installations.  Together, the passive RFID and  active 802.11 (Wi-Fi) based RTLS have been very successful in delivering measurable ROI in facilities that use both.

2018 - Introduce high-yield Mobile

           RFID Cart

2019 - Introduce Location-Aware   

           function in Handheld Scanner

           and Cart

2020 - Add RFID and Barcode/QR

           Code Pairing with DMLSS

           Barcode/QR to Handheld

2022 -  Implement Point-of-Use

            Auto-Status Output

2023 -  Enhance map visualization

            on Plexus Web

2024 -  Conexus receives a

            provisional patent on

            proprietary process for

            tracking RFID tags moving

            throughout multiple discrete

            zones in real time.

Since the initial integration of passive RFID with the Plexus platform, RFID technology has improved in many ways (range, speed, capture rate), and our team is constantly looking for new ways to take advantage of these improvements.

 

Early 2024, Conexus received a provisional patent on a proprietary process that enables a single RFID antenna to be configured to track RFID tags moving throughout multiple discrete zones in real-time. Zones can be as small as a horizontal or vertical 6ft x 6ft area, enabling high granularity, real-time workflow and process management.
