Why IT Leaders in MedTech Trust Movemedical to Deliver Integration at Speed and Growth at Scale

For IT leaders inside global MedTech manufacturers, every decision comes down to balancing three things: Risk, Timelines, and Growth. Any system or tool is just not good enough. Today, a platform has to integrate with core ERP(s) and scale for tomorrow. The temptation for many organizations is to build in-house tools or cobble together custom “Frankenstein” out-dated systems. But over and over again, these projects drag on, overrun budgets, and fail to deliver the adoption and automation needed to transform commercial operations.

Movemedical exists to solve this exact problem—and we have. As the only SaaS platform purpose-built for medical device field operations and inventory management—with more than 20 successful enterprise ERP integrations (SAP, Oracle, JDE, MS Dynamics, and more)—Movemedical gives IT leaders a proven path to deliver results on time, without the risk and drag of slow outdated tools and internal builds.

The Pitfalls of Building In-House and Using Outdated Tools

Many IT departments start with the idea that using what already exists or building in-house tools will give them more control. In reality, these projects tend to spiral in 3 ways:

  • Timelines expand. What was scoped as an 18-month build stretches into 3–5 years. By the time it goes live, requirements have already changed.
  • Maintenance is crippling. Every customization adds complexity. IT teams become maintenance shops, trapped in bug fixes, instead of driving innovation.
  • Adoption lags. If users don’t love the experience (and a complete experience), they’ll work outside the system. With only 20–30% adoption at best (the industry norm for internal and third-party tools), the organization gets none of the promised ROI.

Building on top what already is in place doesn’t give you a competitive edge; it just diverts precious IT talent away from driving true innovation.

Why A Modern, Out-of-the-Box Platform Works Better

Instead of custom builds, Movemedical delivers a configurable, cloud-native platform built specifically for MedTech. Out-of-the-box does not mean generic. It means starting with proven, validated workflows that leading manufacturers already use successfully, then tailoring to your business rules.

Key benefits that set Movemedical apart:

  • Standardization without rigidity. A global MedTech enterprise can standardize best practices while still configuring for local needs and regulations.
  • Faster time-to-value. Typical Movemedical implementations go live in 3–6 months for sales and billing, followed by 3–6 months for full inventory operations. Pilots can go live in as little as 2 months.
  • Continuous innovation. Movemedical invests ~10x more in R&D than competitors, rolling out native RFID, advanced audit automation and reconciliation, and provider integrations—innovations no in-house build could keep pace with.

The result: Enterprise partners of Movemedical achieve adoption rates above 97% (compared to the 20-30% industry average). High adoption is the difference between unrealized potential and real transformation..

ERP Integration: Where Movemedical Excels

For IT leaders, ERP integration is the litmus test of whether a platform can actually work. Movemedical’s record here is unmatched:

  • 20+ enterprise ERP integrations, primarily with SAP (including S/4Hana, etc.), but also Oracle, JDE, and Microsoft Dynamics. No matter the ERP system, Movemedical’s integration experience and expertise is industry leading—and is made evident in our many successful go-lives.
  • True two-way, real-time connections. Movemedical doesn’t just receive and pass data it performs actual work and in real-time. The kind of field inventory work an ERP wasn’t made to handle. Usage capture, replenishment, transfers, billing, compliance updates and more—all flow seamlessly between the ERP and Movemedical.
  • Front-end stability during ERP change. Even if an organization is migrating between ERP versions or instances, Movemedical’s modular architecture ensures front-end operations remain uninterrupted.

This depth of integration expertise means IT leaders don’t have to reinvent the wheel. Movemedical has already solved the hard problems:

  • Accurate master data syncs
  • Field transaction visibility
  • Piece-level item and kit tracking

All key needs that outdated and internal builds can’t perform.

Meeting Timelines Without Compromise

One of the hardest challenges for IT is delivering on promised timelines. Movemedical’s implementation methodology is built for speed without cutting corners:

  • Planned rollouts. Start with master data, then add in the high-value use cases such as scheduling, usage capture, billing while simultaneously expanding into inventory optimization, consignment, and advanced analytics.
  • Dedicated transformation teams. Movemedical brings its own experts, analysts, engineers, and project managers to shoulder the integration burden.
  • Agile, tested approach. Using an agile SDLC with strict validation controls, each release is traceable, validated, and FDA/GxP compliant.

The outcome: Enterprise implementations typically go live in 6 months—leading to real business value and significant ROI for our partners, often beginning within months, not decades.

Compliance and Security Built In

For IT leaders, compliance isn’t optional. Movemedical was designed from the ground up to meet FDA, HIPAA, ISO, GDPR, and HITRUST standards.

  • Validated SaaS model. Every release follows a defined validation protocol aligned with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 and ISO 13485.
  • Robust security culture. AWS-hosted infrastructure, AES-256 encryption, SOC I & II reporting, and NIST-aligned incident management ensure data security.
  • Shared responsibility model. Movemedical absorbs the compliance and infrastructure burden so IT can focus on higher-value initiatives.

Instead of adding risk, Movemedical reduces it. Movemedical provides IT leaders confidence in both the compliance of the platform and the growth that will inevitably follow.

Growth Beyond What Old Tools and In-House Builds Can Deliver

In-house tools may allow you to get by, but they don’t solve any of the underlying problems. Movemedical fixes the foundation and that is what enables growth. IT departments that partner with Movemedical see:

  • Scalability. Support for thousands of users across multiple business units, countries, and ERP instances.
  • Automation. From demand modeling to automated replenishment, Movemedical frees reps and ops teams from manual work, enabling them to handle more growth with fewer errors.
  • Continuous Innovation. As MedTech evolves—ASC growth, provider integration, regulatory changes—Movemedical evolves with it. No in-house system can match that pace.

In this space, Movemedical is 10 years ahead of anyone else when it comes to the ability to track inventory, automate consignment, perform and reconcile audits, manage loaners, sets, trays, kits, instruments, and billing automation.”

Conclusion: A Better Partner for IT

IT leaders in MedTech face constant pressure: reduce risk, support growth, and deliver systems on time. Building in-house and using old tools doesn’t deliver. Custom patchwork slows you down.

Movemedical has already solved the problems IT leaders wrestle with every day. With deep ERP integration expertise, proven implementation timelines, built-in compliance, and continuous innovation, Movemedical is more than a platform. It’s a partner that helps IT departments deliver transformation without the drag of reinvention.

When you partner with Movemedical, IT doesn’t just keep the lights on—IT becomes the driver of enterprise growth.
