Healthcare inventory management is critical to ensuring product availability, traceability, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency across hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, and distribution networks. From pharmaceuticals to medical devices, maintaining accurate stock levels and real-time visibility reduces risk, prevents waste, and protects patient safety.
At Octopus Distribution, we provide tailored inventory management solutions designed for Malaysia’s healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors. With certified warehousing and advanced tracking via our BLIS platform, we help clients gain full control of their inventory while meeting the highest industry standards.
What Is Business Logistics Intelligence System (BLIS)?
BLIS is a smart system developed in-house by us that helps connect your business with your customers. It lets users check stock, place orders, view account details, and more, all in one place. Each team, from sales to finance, sees only the information they need. This makes daily work faster and more organised, while also giving your customers a smoother, more reliable experience.
Customisable Dashboards
Each user sees only the data that matters to them, whether in operations, compliance, or supply chain management.
Provides Real Time Reporting
Track orders, returns, and stock movement in real time. BLIS generates audit-ready reports that meet GDPMD standards.

Our Approach to Inventory Management System in Healthcare
Real-Time Tracking with BLIS
BLIS enables end-to-end visibility across every point of the supply chain, from warehouse intake to final delivery. Clients can track stock by batch, expiry, location, and movement history here.
FEFO and Batch-Controlled Distribution
BLIS enforces First-Expiry-First-Out protocols while providing detailed audit trails for each product batch. This ensures regulatory compliance and reduces waste from expired inventory.
Role-Based Access Control
BLIS offers Granular Access Control, allowing internal staff, sales representatives, and Principal’s personnel to access data relevant to their role, with specific authorisation levels for sensitive tasks like quotation approval and special orders.
