Problem

The COVID-19 pandemic is causing dramatic shortages of personal protective equipment (PPE). There is a lack of urgently needed items, such as masks, gloves, medical wear and disinfectants.

Yet, these or similar items are idly lying around in company warehouses and cellars. Many people and companies have these much-needed goods at home from before the outbreak of COVID-19. These may include respirators such as FFP3 masks used by hobby craftsmen, or sterile supplies once purchased for nursing purposes. These goods and resources have to be collected and transported regionally or nationally according to demand in order to supply to particularly affected facilities.

Production facilities (e.g. laboratories) that manufacture disinfectants, companies that convert their production or people that sew masks - they all have not yet built a supply and demand overview and chain for these products - so they are in need of a logistics platform.

Vision

RemedyMatch.io aims to bring together inventory and demand for medical protective and emergency relief items quickly and easily, thereby helping to bridge supply bottlenecks during the COVID-19 crisis and beyond.

Donations can be made by individuals or by companies of all sizes and across all industries - after registering, they can enter the amount of PPE they can donate directly into the platform.

Users (hospitals, physicians, nursing services, other institutions) can use RemedyMatch.io to get an up-to-date overview of available PPE within a very short time and contact the user(s) who can provide resources to bridge the supply bottlenecks of these articles.

Protective items which are not suitable or needed for medical use can be distributed to particularly vulnerable institutions/groups of people (pharmacists, petrol stations, bank employees, food supply, schools etc.) to ensure their protection. Donated items must be marked if they are sterile and in their original packaging to be suitable for medical use.

Availability can be limited geographically via RemedyMatch.io or via geomatching to ensure the rapid supply of urgently needed medical protection items.

RemedyMatch.io also offers the possibility of integrating logistics partners and requesting offers for transport support. For this purpose, logistics partners (e.g. trustworthy/verified private persons/entrepreneurs or the military) can register to offer non-profit support services. Geomatching is used to link demand carriers, demand providers and logistics partners with each other and can communicate via an integrated chat function.

Organizational requirements for successful implementation with RemedyMatch.io: Establishment of collection points for donations from private persons/companies Collection of donations and transport to three central warehouses (north/centre/south). Surplus medical supplies can also be stored in the central warehouses to ensure 24x7 availability.

Impact to the crisis

We offer an open source solution, to enable anyone to set up a material donation and logistics platform, ready to be implemented all over Europe. Our platform enables all producers & makers to easily get their donations to where they are needed. Thus, we are the perfect link for extending the reach of other initiatives.
