AUSL Modena – The Modena Local Health Authority
The Modena Local Health Authority (AUSL) is one of the most important public healthcare organisations in Emilia-Romagna, with a network of hospitals and local facilities that provide healthcare services throughout the province.
The organisation stands out for its strong focus on digital innovation and the adoption of technological solutions capable of improving the quality of clinical, management and logistical processes.

The challenge
The Modena Local Health Authority (AUSL) aimed to optimise the management of sterilisation and traceability of surgical instruments in a complex context, consisting of numerous locations distributed throughout the territory.
The main requirement was to implement an economical, scalable and interoperable system capable of ensuring efficient access from all facilities and integrating with existing information systems.

The main challenges included:
- Centralise the management of sterilisation processes while maintaining a distributed organisational structure.
- Ensure uniform and secure access to the system from all hospital and local sites.
- Integrate traceability with other company IT systems to optimise data flows.
- Reduce infrastructure costs thanks to a more streamlined and sustainable management model.
- Experiment with innovative solutions capable of further improving efficiency and operational quality.
Proposed solution
Promedital implemented the SIXSTER platform for the Modena Local Health Authority, offered in SaaS (Software as a Service) mode, and introduced SUIS – Intelligent Packaging Table as an experimental proposal, a technology that has been very well received in the company’s operational environment.
The solution enables you to:
- Access the system from all company locations, without the need for dedicated infrastructure.
- Reduce IT management costs thanks to the centralised cloud model.
- Digitally track the entire surgical instrument sterilisation and packaging process.
- Integrate data with existing company information systems, optimising flows and reducing redundancies.
- Increase accuracy and productivity in the packaging phase, thanks to SUIS, which supports operators in real time.
- Monitor and analyse processes using intuitive dashboards and advanced reports.
