Core offering

OrgaCard develops and sells a modular clinic logistics software suite — including the MenüBestell-System for digital patient/resident meal ordering and kitchen production, the MaterialWirtschafts-System for recipe, procurement and inventory management, the LogistikManagement-System with AI-powered KI Plug-in for patient and material transport dispatching, and the BeViS bed occupancy visualization system. The suite is delivered as on-premises installations or SaaS (MBS), supplemented by maintenance contracts, professional services, managed IT services, and training, serving hospitals, clinics, and senior care facilities in the D-A-CH region, Luxembourg, and Italy.

Product overview

OrgaCard offers a modular hospital logistics software suite comprising four core products: the MenüBestell-System (MBS) for meal ordering and kitchen management, the MaterialWirtschafts-System (MWS) for purchasing and inventory management, the LogistikManagement-System (LMS) for patient/material transport with AI-powered automatic disposition, and the BeViS (BelegungsVisualisierungs-System) for real-time bed occupancy visualization. The portfolio operates as a platform-plus-modules architecture where the LMS can be enhanced with the KI Plug-in for AI-driven route optimization using a patented algorithm developed with Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg. The systems integrate with hospital information systems (KIS) via HL7 SIU interface and support various ordering methods including smartphones, bedside terminals, and central ordering terminals. OrgaCard serves clinics, hospitals, and senior care facilities across DACH region, Luxembourg, and Italy.

Products and services

• MenüBestell-System (MBS) Digital menu ordering and kitchen production system for hospital food service, supporting menu planning, meal recording, production control, ordering via smartphone, bedside terminal, dining hall kiosks and staff-assisted channels, and both Cook & Chill and Cook & Serve workflows. Available as on-premises or SaaS deployment.
• MaterialWirtschafts-System (MWS) Material economics and procurement system for clinical kitchens, managing recipes with BLS data, purchasing articles, goods receiving, inventory, warehouse management, statistical evaluations, and LMIV-compliant food information documentation (allergens and nutritional data).
• LogistikManagement-System (LMS) Logistics management system for patient and material transport, bed management and cleaning coordination in hospitals, providing digital planning, control and documentation of transport orders with automatic disposition and AI-powered route optimization via the KI Plug-in. Operates without a manually staffed control center.
• BeViS — BelegungsVisualisierungs-System Standalone real-time bed occupancy dashboard showing current and predicted bed utilization across clinical departments, with machine learning time-series forecasts for admissions, lengths of stay, and discharge probabilities. Operates on OrgaCard's own Kubernetes cluster.
• KI Plug-in for LogistikManagement-System AI-powered add-on module for the LogistikManagement-System using a patented column generation algorithm (co-developed with Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg and the GUROBI optimization solver) to perform real-time route and order optimization and automatic dispatching, eliminating the need for a staffed control center.
• IT-Servicemodul (Bronze / Silver / Gold) Three-tier managed IT service module that functions as an early warning system for IT disturbances: Bronze forwards status alerts to house IT; Silver adds analysis and recommendations from OrgaCard; Gold adds remote-access issue resolution with full documentation and automatic service restarts.

Direct peers

• Dedalus Group: Leading European healthcare IT vendor with hospital information systems and logistics modules across Italy, Germany (via i-SOLUTIONS Health), and Austria. Directly comparable to OrgaCard as a hospital-focused clinical IT platform serving the same D-A-CH and Southern European markets.
• i-SOLUTIONS Health (Dedalus DACH): German HIS vendor (now part of Dedalus) serving hospitals with clinical, administrative, and logistics modules. Competes head-to-head with OrgaCard in German hospital logistics and is a natural incumbent threat in multi-vendor replacement cycles.
• NEXUS AG: German hospital and diagnostic IT vendor with modules for radiology, pathology, and clinical workflows. Comparable as a D-A-CH focused hospital IT specialist with overlapping buyer personas (IT directors, clinical operations).
• Mietzsch GmbH: Specialized German vendor of hospital logistics, food service, and sterile goods management software. Closely comparable narrow-scope competitor to OrgaCard's kitchen, procurement, and transport modules in D-A-CH clinics.
• promedtheus AG: German hospital information system and logistics software vendor targeting D-A-CH hospitals with HIS and process-oriented modules. Comparable mid-sized competitor pursuing similar digitalization opportunities in clinic operations.

Broad incumbents

• CompuGroup Medical (CGM): Major German healthcare IT vendor (including Meierhofer hospital information system) serving ambulatory and hospital providers across Europe. A broad incumbent that could bundle logistics modules into its HIS, displacing point solutions like OrgaCard.
• SAP SE (Healthcare / IS-H): Global enterprise software incumbent with IS-H hospital solutions and supply chain / procurement capabilities. Represents a broad-portfolio threat that could absorb hospital logistics functionality into its larger healthcare suite.

Emerging players

• ATOSS Software AG: German workforce management and logistics software vendor with healthcare solutions. Partially overlaps with OrgaCard in hospital scheduling and resource dispatching, particularly given its optimization-driven approach to shift and task planning.
