About The Customer
The King Hussein Cancer Foundation (KHCF) is an independent non-governmental organization committed to delivering quality, extensive medical care, education, and research. The foundation aims to spread public awareness on early cancer detection while offering the highest quality of care to cancer patients in Jordan and the region. The foundation is also involved in scientific research and fundraising, handling extensive confidential data in the process. The Board of Trustees, chaired by HRH Princess Ghida Talal, plays a significant role in the foundation's operations and decision-making processes.
The Challenge
The King Hussein Cancer Foundation (KHCF), a non-governmental organization dedicated to cancer care, education, and research, was in search of a user-friendly, customizable, and secure platform for handling their extensive confidential data. The foundation required a tool with a document vault where they could store all sensitive documents with high security yet fully accessible. The need for a secure platform was driven by the nature of their work, which involved handling confidential discussions and files, scientific research, and fundraising. The decision to find a new tool was made after several discussions among the Board of Trustees and other executives of the KHCF.
The Solution
The solution came in the form of Convene, a board management software recommended by the Board of Trustees members who had used it on other boards. Convene's powerful Document Library allowed the KHCF and its board members to securely store and access medical data and records. The software also provided the ability to apply copy restrictions, watermarks, and multi-level encryption, ensuring the safety of all their files. Convene's permission-based settings allowed the KHCF team to manage confidential files seamlessly, setting restricted user permissions on folders and individual documents. Additionally, the team could conveniently create and share documents with all members without file size restrictions. The software also offered an e-Signature feature, enabling quick signing workflows and easy management and tracking of documents.

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.
