The solution is used in Central Sterile Services Departments , Endoscopy Reprocessing Units operating theatres, endoscopy procedure rooms and other outpatient settings. To ensure that every device can be recorded to the patient on whom it is used, the GS1 coding system has been adopted by the HSE, and this coding standard allows for consistency across HSE hospitals.

The back end database construct features a suite of Microsoft SQL servers, with each individual hospital site having its own distinct set of SQL databases corresponding to each site s specific Citrix published application instance hosted on one centrally managed Citrix VDA suite. The MSSQL Database servers are hosted in three x 3 node High Availability Windows Server Failover Cluster environments, with site instances of the application spread across these three clusters for load balancing.
