About
GroundControl is a case management system designed to streamline the lifecycle of surgical trays, from tracking and logistics to environmental monitoring. Integrating with Surgio, SMS, Monnit, and BAS Report ensures real-time updates, automated workflows, and seamless route planning. With a robust AWS-based architecture and mobile app support, it enhances efficiency, security, and scalability in surgical operations.
Challenge, approach, and impact
Inefficient Tray Tracking
Manual tracking led to delays and errors in managing surgical trays.
Lack of Real-Time Case Updates
Delays in case creation, updates, and cancellations caused scheduling inefficiencies.
Disjointed System Integrations
No seamless communication between asset management, case management, and environmental monitoring systems.
Scalability & Performance Bottlenecks
Growing data loads required an optimized serverless architecture to ensure reliability.
Mobile Accessibility
Drivers needed a mobile-friendly solution for QR scanning, route tracking, and status updates in the field

“Assuring the reliability and efficiency of GroundControl was both challenging and rewarding. One of the biggest hurdles was ensuring real-time data accuracy across complex workflows, from tray tracking to route optimization. We tackled system resilience, edge cases, and performance bottlenecks, refining processes along the way. Seeing it all come together—eliminating errors, improving efficiency, and enhancing user experience—was incredibly fulfilling“

“From the start, GroundControl was a complex but exciting challenge. We needed a system that wasn’t just powerful, but adaptable—one that could handle evolving workflows without breaking under pressure. There were moments when we had to rethink entire components to improve efficiency and scalability. But seeing it all come together, watching users rely on it seamlessly, and knowing we built something that truly makes a difference—that’s what makes this project so rewarding.“
